Answer:

0.25kg

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that Force=Mass x Acceleration.

Since we are given two of the three values, we can plug them into this equation to solve for the third: Mass.

Force = 4N

Acceleration = 16m/s/s

4 = Mass x 16

Divide both sides by 16 so Mass is by itself on one side:

4/16 = Mass x 16/16

0.25 = Mass

The mass of the object is 0.25 kg (SI Units).

Hope this helped!
