Solution

The correct option is B
the overall acceleration is zero

A mass or an object is in translational equilibrium when the sum of all the external forces acting on the object equals zero it means an object is in translational equilibrium when overall acceleration is zero. Therefore, it is either not moving or moving at a constant velocity.
