Answer:


\boxed{\text{2 m $\cdot$ s$^(-2)$}}

Step-by-step explanation:

F = ma


a = (F)/(m) = \frac{\text{4 N}}{\text{2 kg}} * \frac{\text{1 kg$\cdot$ m $\cdot$ s$^(-2)$}}{\text{1 N}} = \textbf{2 m $\cdot$ s$^(-2)$}\\\\\text{The acceleration of the object is } \boxed{\textbf{2 m $\cdot$ s$^(-2)$}}
