0.3 m/s2

Explanation:

You use the equation $F = m a$ $F=ma$ to solve this.

F = 2 N
m = 7 kg
a = ?

If you rearrange the formula above to solve for "a", you get
$a = \frac{F}{m}$ $a=F/m$
$a = \frac{2 N}{7 k g}$ $a=(2 N)/(7kg)$
$a = 0.2857 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$ $a=0.2857 m/s^2$

Round to the correct number of significant figures (1) and you get:
$a = 0.3 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$ $a=0.3 m/s^2$
