What were the prolemes on Titanic?
The problem with the Titanic was that it was made by penny-pinchers who would rather save money than keep people safe. The Titanic was origionally designed to have 24 emergency bulkheads that would close off any part of the ship in case of a hull breach. This is where the "unsinkable" quote came from. If it had been built to it's original design specifications it could have rammed the iceberg at full speed and not sank. But, the shipbuilders decided that cost too much money...
Why did the Titanic float?
The Titanic floated because, like all ships, it displaced an amount of water that weighed more than the ship itself did. When it collided with an iceberg and its hull was torn open, water rushed in and weighted the ship down, causing it to sink.
Did titanic lower it's speed when approaching the iceberg?
Titanic had less than forty seconds between the sighting and the collision with the iceberg. She could steer but not slow down. Even modern ships with diesels take minutes to reverse at the best of times.At a speed of between 19 and 25 knots (about 23 at the time of impact) it would have taken about a mile to 4 miles to slow the vessel. Even turning to port still would have, because of the initial forward momentum have caused the vessel to keep going forward. Unlike a road vehicle shipping takes a greater distance to turn or to stop
