Solution

According to Archimedes Principle, when a body is partially or totally immersed in a liquid it experiences a buoyant force which is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced. So, when the block is immersed it would experience a buoyant force which would be equal to the weight of liquid displaced. Here, the weight of the displaced liquid is given $23 N$ . So, the buoyant force is equal to $23 N$ .
