Answer:


\Huge \boxed{\mathrm{4 \ m/s^2}}

Step-by-step explanation:


\sf \displaystyle acceleration \ (m/s^2) = (force \ (N))/(mass \ (kg))


\displaystyle a = \frac{F_{\mathrm{net}}}{m}

The mass of the object is 20kg

The net force of 80 N is acting on the object.


\displaystyle a = (80)/(20)


a=4

The acceleration of the object is 4 m/s².

F=ma so a=F/m
Therefore 80N/20kg=4m/s^2
