A body of mass \(10\ \text{kg}\) is moving with a constant velocity of \(10\ \text{m/s}\). When a constant force acts for \(4\ \text{s}\) on it, it moves with a velocity \(2\ \text{m/s}\) in the opposite direction. The acceleration produced in it is:

1. \(3\ \text{m/s}^2\)
2. \(-3\ \text{m/s}^2\)
3. \(0.3\ \text{m/s}^2\)
4. \(-0.3\ \text{m/s}^2\)
