To find the object's acceleration, we can use Newton's second law of motion which states that the force applied to an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration (F = ma).

Given that the force (F) applied to the object is 53 N and the mass (m) of the object is 11 kg, we can rearrange the equation F = ma to solve for acceleration (a).

a = F/m

Plugging in the values, we have:
a = 53 N / 11 kg
a ≈ 4.8 m/s²

Therefore, the object's acceleration is approximately 4.8 m/s².
