According to me, the Froude number is the correct answer.

Galileo number may be regarded as proportional to gravity forces divided by viscous forces.

Weber number deals with the fluid-fluid (interface) interaction rather than fluid-particle (object).

Froude number is defined as the ratio of characteristic velocity to a gravitational wave velocity. In Fluid mechanics, it is used to determine the resistance of a partially submerged object moving through water.

Galileo number is the ratio of gravity forces divided by viscous force.

Weber number is the ratio of inertial force to surface tension force and is used for analyzing fluid flows when there is a interface between two fluids.
