Asked by Morgan
Will an object accelerate if the forces are balanced? Why or why not?
I know that the answer is that it will not accelerate but I'm having a difficult time explaining why.

balanced means zero net force
Newton's 2nd law ... f = m * a
if the force equals zero, then the acceleration also equals zero
