Answer to Question 1

The velocity may be zero, or the velocity may have any direction and magnitude, but
the velocity must be constant. The acceleration must be zero.

Answer to Question 2

The values for the unbalanced force would be slightly more or less. These values
would not be known to the observer, and the data collected would be inaccurate.
