The statement “force equals mass times acceleration” is newton’s second law of motion. why is this a law rather than a theory?

(a) it states, rather than explains, the relationship between the variables.
(b) it cannot be proven, whereas a theory can be proven.
(c) it may be revised if new information shows that the relationship has changed.
(d) it was classified as a law because it is related to other similar discoveries.
