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

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

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

Akhilesh Yadav said:   7 years ago
Any body in equilibrium then total force in acting body in zero. So, Option A is correct.

Mahi said:   8 years ago
A is wrong answer, A body will be float if GRAVITATIONAL less than UPTHRUST force.

Vinay BEL said:   5 years ago
Gravitational force is less than the upthrust of the liquid.
