A uniform solid cube is floating in a liquid as shown in the figure, with part x inside the liquid. Some changes in parameters are mentioned in Column I. Assuming no other changes, match the following –

Column-I | Column-I |
(i) If density of the liquid decreases, x will | [A] Increase |
(ii) If height of the cube is increased keeping base area and density same, x will | [B] Decreases |
(iii) If the whole system is accelerated upward, then x will | [C] Remain same |
(iv) If the cube is replaced by another cube of same size but lesser density, x will | [D] May increase or decrease |
