The correct answer is **dynamic equilibrium**.
When a person is running on a treadmill, they are in a state of dynamic equilibrium because they are in motion, but the forces acting on them (such as gravity and the normal force from the treadmill) are balanced, allowing them to maintain a constant speed while running.
