The unit of force in the SI system is the Newton. 1 Newton is 1 "kilogram meter per second squared". That means it's the amount of force that if you apply it steadily to a mass of 1 kilogram, the kilogram speeds up at the rate of 1 meter per second faster every second. To give you a feeling for the strength of one Newton --- it's about 3.6 ounces. I don't know if there's an official 'standard' unit of force in the US/British system. The ones we use are the ounce, pound, ton, etc.
