What are Balanced Forces?
A force is a push or pull on an object, measured in newtons (N). And if the forces are balanced, it means that in every direction, any pushes and pulls are balanced by another force in the opposite direction. So, for example, you could have an object like this one:
Balanced Forces
This box has balanced forces because it has two newtons pushing up balanced by two newtons pushing down, and five newtons left balanced by five newtons right. The forces in the x-direction are balanced, and the forces in the y-direction are balanced. If we did this in 3D, the forces in the z-direction would also have to be balanced.
But what do balanced forces mean? What's the difference between the motion of an object with balanced forces and an object with unbalanced forces?
Newton's 1st Law
Newton's 1st Law of Motion tells us what this all means. Newton's 1st Law says that an object in motion stays in motion at a constant velocity, and an object at rest stays at rest unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
This means that if the forces on an object are balanced, its velocity will stay constant. If it has a velocity of zero, it will stay zero. If it's moving at 10 miles per hour north, it will keep moving at 10 miles per hour north. The only way to change its velocity is to apply an unbalanced force.

Answer:
The answer is no, balanced forces cannot make something move
Explanation:
balanced forces can't make a object move because there is no net force as the forces cancel out
