When you type ls -s what size unit, does the unix system use to display the file sizes, bits, bytes, megabyte?
I'm unaware of this, can somebody please tell me?

It shows the size of the file in blocks. I guess, it is in KBs. If you use -h option along with -s, like ls -sh you could see the size in human readable format. For more info check the man page.
