The unit of acceleration is metres per square second
(or) m/(s)^2
The formula for force is mass*acceleration
The unit is kgm/(s)^2 (or) Newton(N)
1kgm/(s)^2 = 1 N

It depends on your system of measurement. In the English system, the unit of force would be the pound. Acceleration would normally be feet/second^2. Mass is measured in slugs, so alternatively, acceleration could be pounds/slug though that isnt used commonly. In the metric system, force is measured in Newtons. Acceleration is meters/second^2, or alternatively Newtons/kg.

A common unit of force is Newton.
Force = Mass times acceleration
Newton = kilograms times meters per sec squared.
Acceleration is typically meters/sec2 ms2

the standard measure of force is the newton, and accelleration is the meter per second squared
