Force = mass X acceleration = mass X change in velocity
If there was no force pointing upward, the only force acting on the object would be gravity, and it points down. From the equations above it should be easy to see that if the only force acting on an object was pointing downward, the object would move downward, and if the force was gravity, it would fall downwards through water similar to how it would in air.
buoyancy is the upward force that water exerts on an object. :)
The upward force provided by water is called the buoyant force. Also known as the buoyancy force. Because of buoyant force, objects seem lighter in water.
The upward force exerted on an object in a fluid is buoyancy.

A floating object in water means its mass is smaller than water and therefore it floats. just like helium baloons float upward because it is lighter than air

Buoyancy is an upward acting force. It is caused by fluid preassure which opposes an objects weight ( their gravitational pull downwards ).
This is called a "bouyant" force. It is due to the difference in water pressure between the top of the object and the bottom of the object. Water pressure increases with depth.

Objects fall to the ground because of the force of gravity.
You need to explore the following topics: 1) Pascal's Principle, 2) Buoyancy, and 3) Archimedes' Principle.In a nutshell, objects submerged in a fluid such as water will experience an upward force that is proportional to the size of the object. That upward force is called buoyancy. If an object's buoyancy is greater than its weight (which is a downward force), the object will float. If the buoyancy is not sufficiently large to overcome the weight, the objects sinks.
Buoyancy affects floating and sinking objects by it allowing it to sink or float. Buoyancy is an upward force that allows something to float on water so yeahs... yupp >___________<
