Detailed explanation-2: -A book on the table is an example of a balanced force. The force of the book’s weight is counteracted by the normal force (support force) of the table. The two forces are completely equal and opposite. What is an example of a balanced force that keeps an object moving a constant velocity?

Detailed explanation-3: -A balanced force is shown by the forces acting on a book on a table. One of the forces acting on the table is the downward gravitational pull of the earth, whereas the other force pushing on the book is the upward force owing to the table. The magnitude of balanced forces are equal but the direction is opposite.

Detailed explanation-4: -For example, when an apple hangs from a tree, the weight of the apple is balanced by the force exerted by the branch on the apple. When an object is moving with changing speed, the net force on it is unbalanced.

Detailed explanation-5: -an object floating in water. a tug of war game where neither side is winning. doing a handstand or headstand (without falling) a running car staying in place because the brakes are applied. planets orbiting the sun in a fixed orbit. a person standing or sitting still.
