Answer:

4 m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the acceleration you are going to use the acceleration formula which is

Acceleration= Force/Mass.

You then do the math which is 20/5, which equals 4

Therefore you get a value of 4. You may be asking what the units are. The units of acceleration are m/s^2 (meters per second squared)

So your final answer is 4 m/s^2
