No. There are no forces that could result in an island floating.
2, gravity & buoyancy.
If it's floating, then the buoyant force on it is exactly equal to its weight. (That makes the vector sum of the vertical forces zero, which is why the object is not accelerating vertically.)
Gravity is the general term we use for the properties of space and mass that causeforces of attraction between every two specks of mass in the universe. When thereare forces of attraction between you and any other mass near you ... especially theEarth ... that pretty well guarantees that you will not go 'floating around'.

The gravitational force and the buoyant force.
No. There are no forces that could result in an island floating.
up thrust and gravity
Remember Newton's Second Law! If the object is not accelerating, then of course they are balanced.The main forces are: 1) gravity pulling downward, the fluid in which it is floating pushing upward.
