Forces are balanced when the net force acting on an object is zero. This means that all the individual forces acting on the object are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. When forces are balanced, the object remains at rest or moves at a constant velocity.
If the net force is zero, then the forces are balanced. If the net force is not zero, then the forces are not balanced. You can have a balanced pair of forces, but not a pair of balanced forces.
You say that the two forces are in equilibrium.
If the forces are balanced, then by definition the sum of the forces is zero.
Balanced forces do not alter the motion of objects.
If the forces oppose each other then nothing will happen, if the forces are acting in the same direction then they would actually be one force, equal to the sum of the two forces, if the forces are oblique then more advanced vectors would come into play... the ones that i know well enough to use but not teach.
Assuming this is a physics question, when all the forces acting on an object are balanced, the object is in equilibrium. For example, when a car is at a constant velocity, with no acceleration, all the forces are equal.
Then the objects will move in the direction of the resultant force.
If the net force is zero, then the forces are balanced. If the net force is not zero, then the forces are not balanced. You can have a balanced pair of forces, but not a pair of balanced forces.
You say that the two forces are in equilibrium.
When an object experiences balanced forces, it remains at rest or continues moving at a constant velocity. This is because the forces acting on the object cancel each other out, resulting in no acceleration.
it moves with uniform velocity ... constant speed in a straight line
Unbalanced forces is when the forces are 0N or more. Balanced forces are 0.
If the forces are balanced, then by definition the sum of the forces is zero.
Balanced forces do not alter the motion of objects.
balanced
A balanced group of forces has the same effect as no force at all.
If the forces oppose each other then nothing will happen, if the forces are acting in the same direction then they would actually be one force, equal to the sum of the two forces, if the forces are oblique then more advanced vectors would come into play... the ones that i know well enough to use but not teach.
