The net force on the object is always in the same direction as its motion.

The object is accelerating.

The net force on the object is equal to its weight.

The net force on the object is zero, and the object is either at rest or moving with constant velocity.

Answer: The net force on the object is zero, and the object is either at rest or moving with constant velocity.

Explanation:

In equilibrium, the net force on an object is zero, which means it is not accelerating. It can either be at rest or moving with a constant velocity.
