For this case we have that Newton's second law is given by:

[tex]F = m * a[/tex]

Where:

m: It's the mass

a: Acceleration

F: It's the force

According to the data we have:

[tex]2,000 = 40,000 * a[/tex]

Dividing between 40,000 on both sides of the equation:

[tex]a = \frac {2,000} {40,000}\\a = 0.05[/tex]

Thus, the acceleration is [tex]0.05 \frac {m} {s ^ 2}[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]0.05 \frac {m} {s ^ 2}[/tex]
