Morphology

rebalance = balance (transparent) = re + balance

The prefix 're-' transparently contributes the meaning 'again' to the verb 'balance', including its intransitive use.

Etymology

When something rebalances, the parts re- 'again' and balance 'even' show the idea that it becomes even once more, often by itself; picture a machine shifting weight until it is steady. So, rebalanced describes returning to an even, steady state after a change.
