unbalanced forces
Unbalanced forces are everywhere. When you open a door, when you move a mouse, pour a drink. An unbalanced force is when the forces acting on an object do not balance out. So the force is measured in Newtons (N). If you apply 20 N of force to the right side and 30 N of force to the right side then the object will accelerate to the right because the left has the greater force. You can find unbalanced forces pretty much anywhere. You can apply unbalanced forces to things or and unbalanced force can be applied to you.
speed, velocity, and acceleration
Speed, Velocity and Acceleration are used to calculate and classify and objects motion. Speed is how fast an object takes to get somewhere. Velocity is Speed in a given direction. And Acceleration is a change in speed or direction.

balanced forces
Unlike unbalanced forces, balanced forces have forces that equal out. Like unbalanced forces, balanced forces are everywhere. Chairs, desks, basically anything at rest. Although balanced forces could also be objects at a constant speed. Anyways, objects always have forces acting upon them. Whether they are moving constantly, accelerating, or at rest there are always forces. Ones such as gravity. You yourself have gravity acting on you at all times since your are on the ground and not floating. The chair your sitting on and everything else.
newtons lawsSir Isaac Newton has three Laws of Motion. The first law says that an object in motion will remain in motion until acted upon by and unbalanced force and an object at rest will remain at rest until acted upon by an unbalanced force. The second law the law of Inertia. This law says that
