Yes, a force can set a motionless object in motion by overcoming the object's inertia. Once the force applied exceeds the object's resistance to motion, it will start to move.
Force is the only thing that can set a motionless object in motion.
No, since work is required for an object to gain momentum. In this case, if no work was done (work=force x distance), then the object would not gain momentum despite the force being exerted on it.
A motionless place or object used for comparison is called a datum. It could also be called a reference point.
If no work was done, the object must not have moved in the direction of the force. This could happen if the force was applied perpendicular to the object's motion or if the object remained stationary.
"Motionless" means it doesn't move. If an object moves, it can be said to be in motion; if it doesn't move, it is motionless.
NO

an object that is not moving can be in equilibrum. an object moving at a steady speed in a straight line can also be equilibrum.
Yes, but the net force is ZERO! If an object is moving at constant velocity, the sum of the forces acting upon it is zero. When an object is motionless, its constant velocity is zero. If at any time the sum of the forces -- sometimes called the net force -- is non-zero, the object will accelerate in the direction of the resultant force.
If the net force acting on a motionless object is not zero, the object will start to accelerate in the direction of the net force. Newton's second law states that an object will accelerate in the direction of the net force applied to it, causing a change in its velocity.
No work is done in this scenario since the box is motionless and no displacement occurs. Work is only done when a force causes an object to move over a distance.
If an object is motionless, it means that the net force acting on it is zero. This could be due to balanced forces such as gravity and normal force canceling each other out. Without a net force, an object will remain at rest.
