nothing, the reason i say this is because the earth is moving at a pretty much constant speed, therefore everything at rest on earth is also moving at a constant speed, however remember i said "pretty much" constant, actually the earth is slowing down (- acceleration, not constant speed); Case1 (macro): so for something on earth to be and stay at a constant speed it would need to be moving against the rotation of the earth at the same exact rate at which the earth is de-accelerating (which is highly unlikely because the prescision needs to be 100%) or something in the air could travel at a constant rate (but again highly unliky due to gravity, which changes/adds to the acceleration of a system and/or due to the propulsion "system" of the system (changing engine(mech(jet/plane) or bio(wings/muscles)) output)). Case2 (micro) since most subatomic particles' motions are related to the temperature, which is usually continuosly changing, their speeds are usually changing. Light changes speeds as it passes through different mediums in the atmoshpere, cosmic particles/waves +/-accelerate as they approach the ground/change mediums.
So in conclusion, im pretty shure its nothing! your best bet is to find something on the microscale which always moves at a constant rate.
Also the part of the question "stays" is interpretable

When the velocity of a moving object stays the same it has a what speed?
constant
Does light accelerate?
No. As long as it stays in the same material, its speed is constant.
What is constant speed Give an example?
if an object is moving without any net force or acceleration, it is moving at constant speed, or constant velocity. For example a satellite orbiting the earth is moving at constant speed, a car traveling at 60 mph, a wind of 20 mph. etc.
A cyclist goes around a level circular track at constant speed. Is the cyclist's acceleration zero because her speed is constant?
No. The cyclist is moving at a constant speed, but her velocity is changing. Remember that velocity is speed with a direction vector associated with it. As speed is constant, only direction is changing. But a change in direction is a change in velocity (even if speed is constant), and this requires acceleration in that direction to accomplish the change in direction. You're on the right track, but just recall that acceleration is tied to velocity and not just speed. And note that velocity can change all the time without speed changing. Acceleration must cause the change in velocity. Consider that objects in orbit around the earth move at a pretty constant speed, but accelerate toward the earth all the time. Their speed coupled with their acceleration toward earth cause them to move in an arc - which is their orbital path.
How would the velocity of an object change when the speed stays the same?
Velocity includes both speed and direction, so velocity will change when an object changes direction while maintaining it's speed. An example is a car at constant speed around a curve.
When the velocity of a moving object stays the same it has a speed's?
constant
When the velocity of a moving object stays the same it has a speed?
constant
When the velocity of a moving object stays the same it has a what speed?
constant
Does light accelerate?
No. As long as it stays in the same material, its speed is constant.
What is static inertia?
Static inertia is when a body at rest wants to stay at rest, or a body that is moving at a constant speed stays at the constant speed.
What happens to the speed of in oil and in a glass?
Nothing happens to it. The speed of light is constant as long as it stays in the oil, and although it changes as it crosses the boundary from one to the other, it stays constant again once it's in the glass.

Nothing happens to it. The speed of light is constant as long as it stays in the oil, and although it changes as it crosses the boundary from one to the other, it stays constant again once it's in the glass.
What happens when the force is kept the same over different distances?
The speed stays constant.
What kind of speed does a moving object have when the velocity stays the same?
same speed , coz velocity is constant velocity consists of speed and direction...
When ball is thrown upward then applied force is constant why not speed of ball is constant?
because there if speed is constant than ball never come back to earth hence speed of ball is not constant
Which will trawel faster truck or bike at constant speed?
Strange question, do you really know what you are asking about? Constant speed means that the speed stays the same. If both vehicles have the same MPH, then they are equally fast.
Why the amount of rock at the earth surface stays constant?
because it is cooler above ground
