Two or more forces that are balanced add up to zero. They have the same effect

on masses as the complete absence of force, and they can't change the speed or

direction of an object's motion.

Can balance force bring a body to rest?

Balanced forces cannot bring a body to rest. Balanced forces can act on a body which is already at rest or in motion but equal forces cannot change a bodies acceleration, kinetic energy or momentum.


When do forces balance?

Balanced forces occur when a body is at rest, and when a body is moving at a constant speed in a constant direction.


If the forces are balanced is the object moving?

If the forces acting on an object are balanced, the object will remain at rest or continue to move at a constant velocity. In other words, there will be no acceleration. Balanced forces do not cause motion, but rather maintain the current state of motion or rest.


What balanced force means?

Balanced forces means that the sum of the forces acting on a body is zero, and the body will have constant velocity, either at rest, or moving in a particular direction.


Compare how balanced and unbalanced forces affect an object at rest?

A balanced force acting on an object at rest does not cause any motion because the forces cancel each other out. On the other hand, an unbalanced force on an object at rest will cause the object to start moving in the direction of the greater force.


A body at rest is in state of is called?

A body at rest is in a state of equilibrium. This means that the net forces acting on the body are balanced, resulting in no movement.


What are the force acting on a body at rest?

When a body is at rest, the forces acting on it are balanced. These can include gravitational force pulling the body downward and normal force exerted by the surface supporting the body. As long as these forces are equal and opposite, the body remains at rest.


When can a body stay at rest even though forces act on it?

A body can stay at rest even though forces act on it when the forces acting on the body are balanced, meaning they cancel each other out. This balance of forces results in no net force acting on the body, allowing it to remain at rest.


Do balanced forces cause motion?

No. An unbalanced force causes motion, but balanced forces keep a body in motion in a straight line at constant velocity, or at rest at constant 0 velocity.


What do balanced forces create?

Balanced forces create a state of equilibrium where there is no change in an object's speed or direction. This means the object remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity.


How do opposing forces affect the motion of an object if the forces are balanced?

If opposing forces are balanced, the object will remain at rest or continue to move at a constant velocity. Balanced forces create a state of equilibrium where the net force on the object is zero, leading to no change in its motion.


How do balanced forces affect an object that is at rest?

Not at all. The object is at rest only because the forces are balanced.
