Forces and Motion Exam – Study Guide
... The only "natural" motion is for an object to be at rest. WRONG! If an object is at rest, no forces are acting on the object. WRONG! Only animate objects can exert a force. Thus, if an object is at rest on a table, no forces are acting upon it. WRONG! Force is a property of an object. An obj ...

Indeed, if the work is nonzero, then displacements or rotations accompanied by the work will result in the change of its kinetic energy, that is, the object will accelerate or decelerate and thus it is unbalanced.
