There is a scale with a basket on it. A brick, brick #1 is placed on the scale. The brick has a mass of 10 kg. If the brick is not moving on the scale, are the forces balanced or unbalanced?

The forces are balanced

Explanation:

Since the brick is not moving on the scale, it means that the forces are balanced. An unbalanced force would only be present if there is motion of the brick. So, since the brick does not move, the net force on it is zero. Thus, the forces on it are balanced.
