First of all, there's no such thing a "a balanced force". Two or more forces are balanced

if they all add up to zero.

If the forces on an object are balanced, it either remains motionless, or else it moves

in a straight line at a constant speed.

When an acorn falls from a tree, it falls in a straight line, but its speed keeps increasing

until it hits the ground. So the forces on it can't all add up to zero ... that is, however

many forces are acting on it, they can't be balanced.

Why would a feather dropped from the same height as an acorn fall to earth more slowly than the acorn?

feathers are believed to be of a lesser weight than that of an acorn neglegting air resistance and the influence of gravity on the falling objects. Consider: if both were dropped inside of a vacuum they would reach the earth at the same time.
