My stupid internet means I can’t see the photo properly. But anyway they don’t do much after they hatch. Is he breathing? Did he hatch unassisted? If yes to both he is probably just completely knackered! hatching is hard work.
If you are concerned you could mix maybe 1-4 teaspoon of sugar in about 1/3 glass of warm water and get a dropper or very small syringe and hold it beside the beak so that a drop is hanging off of the dropper, and just run that around the outside of the beak. Don’t try and force it to drink just let it feel the water and in my experience they will often open their beak and take a drop or two which gives them a little bit of a boost.
But basically with my ducklings anyway, they can sleep up to a day or longer without doing much..
You get some that burst out of the egg shell raring to go, like here I am ready to take on the world! Right now! But most will get out and then just sleep for the next 12-24 hrs.

When I say the above, I assume the hatchling is being kept in an incubator at the correct temperature, and not under a heat lamp? For the first day or so they need to be somewhere that is EXACTLY the right temperature, as they are not yet strong enough to move closer if cold or move away if too hot (and a few degrees in either direction can easily kill). So they need to be kept in an incubator or brooder that has automatic temperature control ie it will maintain a constant temperature of around 35 deg celcius NOT put on a heat pad or placed under a heat lamp. Both those are fine once they are dried out, and up and able to walk, but not suitable for newly hatched chicks or ducklings.

Look like a fresh hatch. Let it along give it time. Hatching is hard work and they will lay around and rest sometimes for hours before they move and when they do move they have to learn to walk. So they will stumble and fall before they gain their footing.

If it hatched it wasn't early. The incubator conditions were probably not exactly what they should have been.

What should i do now

Keep it separate from the other chicks. Leave it alone it will dry up in a few days to a week then you can put it with the others.
