A balanced force is a force that doesn't cause changes in the motion of an object (the forces acting on the object will be canceled and the net force will be zero), while an unbalanced force will generate acceleration in the object, that is, the speed will change.

So we can say that an unbalanced force changes motion of the object (option A).
