Explanation

• An object moving along a circular path is experiencing a change in direction, which means it is constantly accelerating.
• According to Newton's first law of motion, an object in motion will remain in motion with a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force.
• In the case of an object moving in a circular path, the force of centripetal acceleration is acting on the object, causing it to change direction and accelerate towards the center of the circle.
• Therefore, the object is not in equilibrium.
