balanced force
unbalanced force
Newton's first law of motion, also known as the law of inertia, states that an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Balanced forces do not cause a change in motion. Unbalanced forces are required to change the state of motion (rest or uniform motion) of an object as per Newton's first law.
