Answer:The force of buoyancy equals density of liquid times acceleration due to gravity times volume of liquid replaced. So buoyancy is directly proportional to gravity, and you would float just as well in 5G as 1G. ... A simpler way to look at it is: you float because gravity attracts water more than it attracts your body.

Explanation: i dont know if this helps i hope it does have a nice day.
