Give two examples under the condition that sum of all linear forces acting on the body should be equal to zero.

Assertion: If the resultant force acting on a body is zero, then body is in equilibrium.
Reason: Resultant force on a body is equal to algebraic sum of all forces acting on the body.

When balanced forces act on a body, the body :
