Best Answer

It took the RMS Titanic approximately 2 hours 38 minutes from hitting the iceberg to cracking in half.

After it cracked in half, the hull plummeted to the ocean floor in about 5 minutes, and the stern took corkscrewed down to the ocean floor about 2 miles deep.

So that's a pace of 24 miles per hour on average speed!

The top speed of the Titanic was about 23 knots (26.5 mph). When the ship collided with the iceberg, it was doing about 21 to 22 knots, which is arguably not a safe speed in dangerously icy waters, and at night. However, it was not unusual for ships to try to shorten their passage time.

It sank in about 2 hours and 40 minutes.

If you're asking how fast she was falling to the ocean floor, it reached around 25 mph (roughly same as her top speed).
