Solution

The correct option is B zero
If the resultant of all the forces acting on a body is zero, the forces are called balanced forces. Balanced forces do not cause any change of state of an object.
For example, in a tug of war game, if both the teams apply the same magnitude of force in opposite directions, the rope does not move towards either side.
