As long as the 20N force
keeps
pushing, its acceleration is 50/20 = 2.5 m/s² .
But as soon as the force
stops
pushing, the object stops accelerating.
It continues on from there at constant speed in a straight line.

A 50kg person pushes to the right on a 10kg box with a 20N force. What is the direction of the force on the person? To the right. There is no force on the person, just on the box. The net force is zero.
