The correct response is **unbalanced**.

When Sandy places a magnet near the paper clip, the magnetic force from the magnet acts on the paper clip. If the paper clip begins to move, it indicates that the forces acting on it are not balanced; the magnetic force exceeds any opposing forces, resulting in motion.
