Answer:


a=1m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use Newton's Second Law to solve this exercise, which states that an object of mass m subjected by a force of magnitude F will experiment an acceleration given by the formula F=ma. I our case we want the acceleration, so we can write a=F/m, and use the values given:

a=F/m=(1000N)/(1000kg)=1m/s2.
