Answer:

if the velocity is plotted with respect to time we will find a line and its slope will be the value of the acceleration, it determines how much it changes the speed with respect to time.

so the unit for lineal acceleration is unit of length over square unit of time, I show you some examples


(L)/(t^(2) )= (m)/(s^(2) ) , (ft)/(min^(2) ) ,(km)/(s^(2) ) ,(mm)/(s^(2) ) , (in)/(s^(2) )
