Explanation:

A balanced force occurs when two forces acting on an object are equal in size and opposite in direction, resulting in no change in the object's motion. A cookie on a plate, a person sitting on a chair, and an orange cone on the road are at rest and have balanced forces acting on them (gravity pulling down and the normal force pushing up). Pushing a lawn - mower involves an unbalanced force to make it move, and a bowling ball knocking down pins is an example of an unbalanced force causing a change in motion.
