Acceleration --> meters/second/second (m/s^2)

Acceleration measures how fast something is speeding up. Speed measures how far something goes in a certain amount of time; acceleration measure how fast that speed is increasing (does that make sense? ask question if you need more clarification).

Velocity --> meters/second (m/s) south

Velocity is speed with a direction. Above I explained what speed is.

Force --> Newtons (N)

That's just what force is measured in.

Distance --> meters (m)

Meters is a unit of distance, or how far it is. It's not moving so there is no time component.

Mass --> kilograms (kg)

Kilograms is a unit of mass. Generally anything with grams is going to be a unit of mass.

Hope this helps.
