The given equation for force is:

F = a + b x

GIVEN: F - force in newton

x - distance in metre

Every physics equation should be dimensionally correct. So, 'a' should be in newton.

If x is distance expressed in metre, then the product "bx" should have the dimension

of newton. so, b should be equal to force/unit distance.
