If the total net force on a system is zero and the mass remains constant, then the correct statement is:
**The acceleration is zero.**
According to Newton's first law of motion, if the net external force acting on an object is zero, the object will either remain at rest or continue to move at a constant velocity, which implies that the acceleration is zero.
