Which one of the following statements concerning the buoyant force on an object

Question

Which one of the following statements concerning the buoyant force on an object submerged in a liquid is true? The buoyant force is independent of the density of the liquid. The buoyant force depends on the volume of the liquid displaced. The buoyant force will increase with depth if the liquid is incompressible. The buoyant force depends on the weight of the object. The buoyant force depends on the mass of the object.

Explanation / Answer

B) The buoyant force depends on volume of liquid displaced. from wiki--> Buoyancy depends on volume and so an object's buoyancy reduces if it is compressed and increases if it expands.
