Suppose a uniform cube of wood floats on the surface of water. Water wets it completely. Will it be buoyed up or down by surface tension?
The force of surface tension is tangential to the liquid surface (along the surface of liquid). So I think there is no effect on buoyancy of cube due to surface tension.
