    It would be Joules.

    Workdone is measured in Joules.

    Workdone = Force * distance

    Force = mass * acceleration

    = kg * ms⁻²

    = kgms⁻²

    Distance = m

    So, Force * distance

    kgms⁻² * m

    Apply laws of indices that says

    x² * x³ = x²⁺³ = x⁵

    Therefore, It would be kgm²s⁻²

    m¹ * m¹ = m¹⁺¹ = m²

    s⁻² is also = s / 2

    Well, the " kg-m/s² " is a Newton ... that's a [force].

    When it's multiplied by another 'm', you get " kg-m²/s² ".

    That's [force] · [distance], which is [work] or [energy].

    So far, we have [energy] / C.

    If the 'C' stands for 'Coulomb' of charge, then the whole thing

    is [energy] / [charge] or " joule / Coulomb ". That's a volt!

    So the whole thing is a unit of electrical potential, potential difference,

    or electromotive force.

    When I first saw this question, I was trying hard to make it a unit

    of something that has to do with heat, because I thought that big

    ' C ' out at the end was actually ' °C ' for Celsius degree. But I think

    the electrical stuff is better. So that's my answer and I'm stickin' to it.
