An object of mass 5 kg is subject to a net force of 20 N. What is the magnitude of its acceleration?

A 0.25 m/s²
B 4 m/s²
C 5 m/s²
D 100 m/s²

✓ Correct Answer: Option B

According to Newton's Second Law, acceleration (a) is equal to the net force (F) divided by the mass (m) of the object. So, a = 20 N / 5 kg = 4 m/s².
