Detailed Solution

The Buoyancy force is the weight of the liquid that is been displaced by the cone. 

The Net force on the either sides of the cone the resultant buoyancy force.

Force at the bottom surface=(ρgH)×πR2

And the net buoyancy force = volume of cone x density of fluid x acceleration due to gravity

=13πR2H×ρg

The force acting on the slant surface of the cone =ρgHπR2-13πR2Hρg=23πρgHR2
