A body will be in translational equilibrium if the vector sum of all the forces acting on it is:

Equilibrium of Forces
Elimination Tool:
When all of the forces acting on a body add up to zero, the body is said to be in equilibrium. When an object’s total acceleration is zero, it indicates that it is in translational equilibrium. As a result, it is either stationary or traveling at a steady speed.
