What direction does buoyant force point?
the buoyant force points up and gravity goes down that's why we are balanced.
How does buoyant force act on an object?

Is buoyancy a contact force?
Contact forces are forces that act at a point of contact between two objects. Buoyant force is an example of a contact force.
What is the direction of the buoyant force?
If you're talking about something in say a tank of water, the buoyant force points up and opposes the downward force of gravity......
Why does buoyant force act upward on an object submerged in water?
The greater the pressure against the bottom of a submerged object produces an upward buoyant force
Does the buoyant force act in all ways?
No buoyant force would act only in the upward direction against the weight of the body as it gets immersed in the liquid.
Does the buoyant force act in all directions?
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.
In which direction does the buoyant force work?

Why does buoyant force act upward?
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.

Why does not the BUYONT FORCE acts in upward direction?
Actually it does. That's the whole point of the "buoyant force".
Why does buoyant force act upward on an object submerged in water?
The greater the pressure against the bottom of a submerged object produces an upward buoyant force
How does the buoyant force affect a submerged object?
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.
