What is true about what causes an object to stay at rest?(1 point) Responses Objects at rest will stay at rest unless acted upon by balanced forces. Objects at rest will stay at rest unless acted upon by balanced forces. If the forces acting on an object are unbalanced, an object must be at rest. If the forces acting on an object are unbalanced, an object must be at rest. An object at rest has unbalanced forces acting upon it. An object at rest has unbalanced forces acting upon it. An object at rest has balanced forces acting upon it. An object at rest has balanced forces acting upon it.

The correct statement is: "An object at rest has balanced forces acting upon it."

This aligns with Newton's First Law of Motion, which states that an object will remain at rest (or in uniform motion) unless acted upon by a net external force. If an object is at rest, it means that the forces acting on it are balanced (the sum of the forces is zero).
