Then what about when gravitational dice is equal to the upthrust force?
I think both A&B are correct!

The Correct answer is [A].
For the body to float or to stay in equilibrium over the liquid surface, Weight of the body(Gravitational force) must be equal to the Buoyant force(Upthrust of the liquid).

Only B is the right answer. Because, a body will sink, if Gravitational force > Upthrust force.

A is wrong answer, A body will be float if GRAVITATIONAL less than UPTHRUST force.

B is the correct answer.

The Gravitational force less then the upthrust of a liquid in a floating condition. So the answer is B.

It is mentioned upthrust force, a body floating on water means opposite equal force acts on it.

Any body in equilibrium then total force in acting body in zero. So, Option A is correct.
