Answer:Remains same

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

It is given that the depth is constant and we are only increasing the height of object submerged in the water

thus Force due to Pressure remains same as this force depends upon the depth of object with respect to free surface of Fluid.

Pressure at a depth h with density
\rhoof fluid is given by


P=\rho * g* h

and
Force=Pressure * area
