F = m * a

Force = mass times acceleration


Assuming you can constantly kick with the same force, a pingpong ball will accelerate faster than a bowling ball.


In the formula mass is in kg, force in newtons and acceleration in m/s^2


The torque / hp curves complicate the exact calculations though.
