What else can I help you with?
What is the total of all forces acting on an object called?
The total of all the forces acting on an object is called either the metabolism respiration enzymes or photosynthesis
If there are two equal and opposite forces on something you say the forces are?
You say that the two forces are in equilibrium.
When the net force on an object is zero we say that the two forces are?
When the net force on an object is zero, the two forces acting on the object are balanced or equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. This is known as equilibrium.
What can we say about the forces on an object that is not moving?
If an object is not moving, the forces acting on it must be balanced. This means that the net force on the object is zero, resulting in no acceleration and maintaining a constant velocity or state of rest.
If we are told that an object has a constant velocity what can we say about the force on that object?
If an object is moving with constant velocity, then the net force acting on it is zero. This means that the forces acting on the object are balanced, resulting in no acceleration and a constant velocity.
What can you say about the forces acting on a stationary object?
The forces acting on a stationary object are balanced. If you were to add up all the forces (taking the directions into account, you would get a total of 0. There are always forces acting on a object, such as gravity, so you cannot say that there are no forces acting on it. You can say that the forces are balanced.

If an object is moving at a constant speed what do we know about the forces acting on the object?
Not much, really. If the object's direction is changing, then the velocity changes, and there are forces acting on it. The only thing we can say is that the net force acting on the object is either zero, or it is perpendicular to the movement.If the VELOCITY doesn't change, then the net force (the sum of the forces) is zero.

What can you say about an object at rest pulled in opposite directions by equal forces?
An object at rest being pulled in opposite directions by equal forces experiences a state of equilibrium where the forces cancel each other out. As a result, the object remains stationary with no net acceleration or movement in any direction.
What type of force does an object have if its net force is equal to zero?
If the net force on an object is zero, we can say that the forces are balanced, or that they are in equilibrium(which really means the same thing). There may be forces acting on the object, but there is an equal and opposite force pushing or pulling in the opposite direction, and all the forces balance out. Alternatively, there may be no forces acting on the object at all.
What object has all forces acting on it?
Please redefine question. All objects have all forces acting on them to some degree or another, with strong and weak nuclear forces, gravitational, electromagnetic being the fundamental forces. Or do you mean something like uniform compression forces, say of a submersible underwater being "crushed from all sides".
If a crate is stationary on an incline does it mean that it is in the state of equilibrium?
If a crate placed on an inclined plane is moving at constant velocity or not moving at all -- which is really a special case of constant velocity where the velocity is zero -- then the sum of the forces acting upon it is zero. We can say that it is in a state of equilibrium, where all forces acting upon it are in perfect balance and cancel themselves out. A free-body diagram is often used to represent a body and the forces acting upon it and helps us visualize the relationship of the vector forces. See this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-body_diagram#Example
What do it means when they say balanced forces?
When forces are balanced, the total force acting on an object is zero, resulting in no change in the object's motion. This means that the forces acting in opposite directions cancel each other out. As a result, the object either remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity.
