*In dynamic '''equilibrium''', an [[object]] moves with constant [[velocity]] with no net [[force]] or [[moment]] acting on it.
*Conditions for '''equilibrium''' include ∑𝐹=0 (no net force) and ∑𝜏=0 (no net moment).
*'''Equilibrium''' is used to calculate unknown variables and predict physical outcomes of given situations (At what angle slope will an object tip over, what is the tension in the wires holding up a weight).
*Stability of '''equilibrium''' can be classified as stable, unstable, or neutral.
