The line joining the planet to the Sun sweeps out equal areas in equal times as the planet travels around the ellipse.

Newton’s 2nd law (N2) – If a body of mass M is acted upon by a force F, then its acceleration a is given by F=Ma Note – N2 defines “inertial mass” as the degree by which a body resists being accelerated by a force. – Another way of saying this is that force = rate of change of momentum (rate of change of mv). Newton’s 3rd law (N3) - If body A exerts force F on body B, the body B exerts a force –F on body A.
