If you're talking about something in say a tank of water, the buoyant force points up and opposes the downward force of gravity......
the buoyant force points up and gravity goes down that's why we are balanced.
A buoyant force is produced when an object is completely or partially submerged in a fluid at rest .
The bouyant force acts in an upward direction against gravity. It keeps things from sinking.
Contact forces are forces that act at a point of contact between two objects. Buoyant force is an example of a contact force.
buoyant force is always or equal to the force exerted by gravity. that's why an object floats.

Actually it does. That's the whole point of the "buoyant force".
No buoyant force would act only in the upward direction against the weight of the body as it gets immersed in the liquid.
If the weight of the object is higher than the buoyant force the object SINKS. And the opposite happens if the weight is lower than the buoyant force. If it is equal, the object neither sink nor float, it is neutrally buoyant.
Yes, but any bit of force in any horizontal direction is always exactly cancelled by an equal-size bit of force in the opposite horizontal direction, so there's never a NET horizontal buoyant force. It's only apparent in the upward vertical direction.
The bouyant force acts in an upward direction against gravity. It keeps things from sinking.
The buoyant force on an object submerged in a fluid is caused by the pressure difference between the top and bottom of the object. To overcome the gravitational force, the buoyant force acts in the upward direction. The larger pressure at greater depth pushes upward on the object.
Contact forces are forces that act at a point of contact between two objects. Buoyant force is an example of a contact force.
buoyant force is always or equal to the force exerted by gravity. that's why an object floats.
Buoyant force is based upon the mass of the water displaced. Therefore, two objects will have the same buoyant force if they have the some volumes.
