Brief form of discussion: Definitely!
Verbose form:
Net force is required to change speed or direction of an object's motion.
No net force is required to keep it moving in a straight line at a constant
speed.
The net force acting on an object at rest is zero. This means that all the forces acting on the object are balanced and there is no overall force causing it to move.
There can be forces acting on an object while it is at rest, as long as the forces cancel each out. For example: a block laying on a table feels the force of gravity pulling it down, but the table pushes up with the same force. Therefore, the forces cancel and the object remains at rest.
The forces acting on a stationary object are:PushPullGravity
If an object is at rest, the net force acting on it must be zero. This means that all forces acting on the object must be balanced and equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.
It will stay at rest.

You can't. The net force simply means that the acceleration is zero. It could be at rest, or the object could be moving at a constant velocity.
If an object is at rest, the net force acting on it must be zero. This means that all forces acting on the object must be balanced and equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.
If an object is immobile, it means that the net force acting on it is zero. This is in accordance with Newton's First Law of Motion which states that an object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
Yes, an object at rest can have forces acting on it. The vertical forces acting on an object at rest would include gravity pulling it downward and the normal force from a surface pushing it upward to balance the force of gravity.
It will stay at rest.
An object at rest or in motion with no force acting upon it.
An object will remain at rest if the net force acting on it is zero. An object will continue to move at a constant velocity if the net force acting on it is zero and there is no external force to change its velocity.
