- Physics.â—† If a system is in stable equilibrium , small disturbances to the system cause only a temporary change before it returns to its original state.

equilibrium
1- A condition in which all influences acting cancel each other, so that a static or balanced situation results. In physics , equilibrium results from the cancellation of forces acting on an object. In chemistry , it occurs when chemical reactions are proceeding in such a way that the amount of each substance in a system remains the same. ( See chemical equilibrium .)
equilibrium
2- In economics , a state of the economy in which for every commodity or service (including labor), total supply and demand are exactly equal. Equilibrium is never actually attained; it is approximated by movements of the market.
