well newton's second law clearly says the acceleration of an object is in the same direction of the net force on the object and that the acceleration can be calculated like so: acceleration (in meters/seconds2) F net (in newtons) divided by the mass (in kilograms). ;so if you wanted to calculate the acceleration of an object and the mass was 20kg and the net force was 8 newton- 8/20=0.4m/s2. another simpler way in my opinion is to use the equation m=net force x acceleration. being this way just because i do not like dividing that much and multiplying is Way easier :D. hope this helped
