Detailed Solution

The body will stay at rest when forces are applied in the opposite direction.
A body can also stay at rest even when the forces are acting on it. However, it is only possible when a couple of forces act in opposite directions and when the sum of forces acting on one side is equal to the sum of forces in the opposite directions so that both forces cancel each other to attain an equilibrium condition. In simple words, the body will stay at rest if the net force acting on the body is zero.
