Answer: D. A car that moves at a constant speed in one direction.

Explanation: D is the answer because a car moving in a constant speed represents a balance force because the speed is constant and the forces are balanced or, when a car travels at a constant speed, the driving force from the engine is balanced by resistive forces such as air resistance and friction in the car's moving parts.
