1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known
I have absolutely minimal concepts of this subject so if somebody could help me with the most simple language I'd really appreciate it.
I'd like to know how to calculate the volume of air I would need in order to be able to safely float 1000kg spread out on top.
I found many explanations about water displacement and how things float but it doesn't seem to be helping me getting any closer to understanding what I need to do.
