Answer:

Newton's second law

Step-by-step explanation:

this is because Newton's second law of motion states that when a resultant force acts on an object of a constant mass, it will accelerate in the direction of the resultant force

but to consider the others, you will know WHY I rejected the others

a. Newton's first law of motion states that every object will continue in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless a resultant force acts on it.

balanced forces this there isn't any acceleration

C. Newton's third law of motion states that if body A exerts a force on B, then B will exert an equal and opposite force on A

this law has nothing to do with acceleration

HOPE THIS HELPS, PLEASE MARK IT BRAINLISSTTTTTT

OR IF IT WASNT HELPFUL, PLEASE REPORT IT, AND LET SOMEONE ELSE TRY IT
