The situation in which unbalanced forces are acting on an object is:

Two people stand on the same side of a large tire. One person pushes the tire and the other pulls the tire with equal force.

In this case, while the forces may be equal in magnitude, they act in opposite directions, leading to a net force that is not zero, resulting in unbalanced forces.
