When two forces of equal magnitude act in opposite directions on an object, it is called balanced forces. This results in no change in the object's motion.

What is it Called when equal forces act on one object in opposite direction?

In that case, the vector sum of the forces is zero; the forces are said to be balanced. You can also get balanced forces with more than two forces, for example, three forces of the same magnitude at an angle of 120 degrees to one another.

What is concurrent forces in space?

When all the forces of a force system act in one plane it is called coplanar force system. If the forces act in more than one plane then it is forces in space. In this case forces are not contained in one plane. When all the forces of a system pass through a common point they are called concurrent forces. Thus we have concurrent coplanar forces when all forces are in one plane and pass through a common point. Also when forces in space pass through a common point we have concurrent forces in space.

Define concurrent forces?

Concurrent forces are forces that all act on a single point but have different lines of action. These forces can be resolved into components that act in different directions. The equilibrium of a body under concurrent forces can be analyzed using vector diagrams.

Gravitational forces are attractive only. They act on a line from the center of mass of one object, to the center of mass of another object, and work to bring the two objects closer together.
