Titanic was travelling at about 22 knots with 46,000 tons on her, striking something that was larger and denser than she was. If Titanic hit the iceberg head-on, she would have crumpled like an Accordion and sunk within minutes, not hours. Nobody would have had to time to board any lifeboat or call for help, all hands would have been lost, and her fate (and location) would have been a mystery.

∙ 14y agoIn the middle of the day the men on watch would have seen the iceberg and the ship would have altered course to avoid it, Titanic wouldn't have sank. But for the sake of the question, if it had actually hit an iceberg the end result would probably have been pretty much the same as the water temperature would still have been very cold and other ships would still have been some distance away.

Could the titanic of made it if it went straight trough the iceberg?
No. The iceberg was considerably larger and heavier than the Titanic- sort of a mountain of ice, mostly underwater. To attempt that would be like trying to fly an airplane through a concrete wall- a quick disaster.
Where exactly did the iceberg hit the Titanic?
Titanic hit ice about 400 miles south of Newfoundland.
Would the iceberg that hit the titanic have the same effect on another boat?
Probably.
If the titanic faced the iceberg head on would it have sunk?
Yes,because the iceburg still would have a gash in/on it
Why did the Titanic break when sinking?
Technically yes. The Titanic ran into an iceberg. The Titanic was built to withstand a head-on collision with an iceberg however it ran into the berg from the side which tore a hole into the hull. . . It is speculated that the Titanic would not have sunk if she ran straight into the iceberg however this is merely a speculation because it is impossible to go back in time and change it. . .
If the titanic went slower would it have survived?
Shifting the titanic from the course to avoid colition, doomed it. The iceberg from the side was not the same that taking from the front. Repairs would be made, but it would not sunk and eveyone would be alive back them.
What is the theory that if titanic carried on that it wouldn't of hit the iceberg?
There is no such theory. If Titanic had not steered, she would have been destroyed by a head-on collision with the iceberg.
