Their magnitude of force must be the same for the tensions to equal out.
An object at equilibrium has zero acceleration so both the magnitude and direction of the object's velocity must be constant. When the body is in equilibrium the forces are balanced. Balanced is a keyword used to describe a balanced state. Therefore the net force is zero and the acceleration is 0 m/s/s. The acceleration of a body in equilibrium must be 0 m/s/s
For a body to be in equilibrium it must not be accelerating. This means that both the net force and net torque on the object must be zero. Clearly when in equilibrium, the net force on the object is zero. According to Newton's second law of motion if the net force is zero the acceleration is also zero. When the acceleration is zero the velocity and thus the velocity is constant by definition. Option d does not apply to equilibrium in this case.
