Is it against the law to hit your child on the arm and leave a bruise with a belt?
Any hit or slap which leaves a mark or cut on a child could be determined to be child abuse. However, even a well-meaning parent using appropriate punishment with a child COULD accidentally leave a bruise. This is why authorities evaluate each case and the circumstances.
That said, a child who is being beaten and abused can report this to the police, any teacher, or counselor. All are mandated to report suspected abuse. A child can also call Child Welfare to report. However, it doesn't mean the agency will decide it is abuse.
If you did something wrong, and your parent accidentally left a bruise when he smacked you, is it truly abuse... or are you just angry that an adult can set the rules, even if you don't like those rules.

It could be. The deciding factor is how it was done. If you use a belt or something beyond the flat of your hand and it is hard enough to leave welts/red marks on the child it is abuse.

As a parent you are a role model for the child and need to think of what you are teaching your child when you hit them.
