This question can be easily solved with newton's second law of motion.
F=ma
a=F/m
=8/0.8
=10m/s^2

Answer :
a = 10 m/s^(2)

Explanation :

Given that,

Mass = 0.80 kg

Force = 8.0 N

According to newton second law


F = ma


a = (F)/(m)


a = (8.0 N)/(0.80kg)

The acceleration is


a = 10 m/s^(2)

Hence, this is the required solution .
