The two kinds of equilibrium are the folowing:
Physical, which is an open system, and the rate of substances in, equals the rate of substances out.
The other equilibrium is chemical equilibrium, which is a closed system, and the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction.

The two kinds of equilibrium are static equilibrium, where an object is at rest with no linear or angular acceleration, and dynamic equilibrium, where an object is moving at a constant velocity with no linear or angular acceleration.
The property that determines if two objects are in a state of thermal equilibrium is the temperature. In thermal equilibrium, the temperatures of the two objects are equal, and there is no net heat transfer between them.
The zeroth law of thermodynamics pertains to the concept of thermal equilibrium between two systems. It states that if two systems are each in thermal equilibrium with a third system, then they are in thermal equilibrium with each other. This law establishes the transitivity of thermal equilibrium relationships.
No, not all objects at equilibrium are stable. There are two types of equilibrium: stable equilibrium, where a system returns to its original state when disturbed, and unstable equilibrium, where a system moves away from its original state when disturbed. Objects at unstable equilibrium are not stable.
This is known as the Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics. It states that if two systems are each in thermal equilibrium with a third system, then they are also in thermal equilibrium with each other. Essentially, it establishes a transitive property of thermal equilibrium.
No, if two bodies are in thermal equilibrium in one frame, they will not necessarily be in thermal equilibrium in all frames. Thermal equilibrium depends on the balance of energy exchange between the bodies, which can vary with different frames of reference due to relative motion and time dilation effects.
