a)a ball striking a wall, in which the force of the ball on the wall is equal to the force of the wall on the ball
b) a gas balloon in which the buoyant force is greater than its weight and air resistance
c) a man in a parachute when the air resistance is less than his weight
d) a rocket fired straight up, when the engine thrust is equal to the air resistance
