A constant force is applied to an object, causing the object to accelerate at 10 m/s^2. What will the acceleration be if the force is halved and the object's mass is doubled?

All you need is the most important equation of the classical mechanics, the equation that revolutionized physics as we knew back in the 17th century!.. The physics which we owe it all to Sir Issac Newton, who formulated the three laws of motion and united the laws of the heavens and the local bodies.. 

second law.. use second law buddy!

acceleraton will reduce to 1\4th of its value acc to the second law of motion 
F=MA SO A=F\M 
force is halved and mass is doubed so the final equation is 
A=F\2*2M = F\4M
