The S.I. unit of upthrust is (b) N, which stands for Newton. Upthrust, also known as buoyant force, is the force exerted by a fluid on an immersed object, directed upwards. It is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. The Newton is the unit of force in the International System of Units (S.I.).
