Final answer:

Forces on the basketball are balanced at the moment it touches the floor, enabling it to bounce.


Explanation:

Forces on the basketball are balanced at the moment the ball touches the floor. When the ball bounces, the gravitational force pulling the ball down is balanced by the normal force exerted by the floor pushing the ball up. This balance of forces allows the ball to bounce.
