Acceleration is 0 m/s/s, Net force is zero. An object moving at constant velocity does not accelerate and does not have an unbalanced force acting on it.

Zero.

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity over time.

Since in your case there is no change, there is no acceleration, so it is zero:

Or in formula: a=Δvt

Where a=acceleration, Δv=change in velocity and t=time
