Step-by-Step Solution

Solution 1

The state of an object is said to be balanced when the net force acting on the object is zero. Both force and direction is to be considered to derive the net force. 30 N west and 27 N east does not yield zero net force though the forces are opposite but magnitude is not. 25 N up and 20 N down also does not give zero magnitude. 1000 N and 1200 N in the opposite direction result non-zero force.

Hence, the option (a), (c) and (d) are incorrect.

Step #2 of 3

The net force result to zero if 500 N to the left and 500 N to the right act on the same object.

Step #3 of 3

Therefore, the correct option is .
