Jack Phillips did not survive the sinking, it was Harold Bride. And they both ignored several messages because earlier in the day the wireless stopped and they had to fix it. During that time they became backed up with messages from passengers and were interrupted each time while sending them. Eventually, Harold Bride poured out the message, "Shut up! Shut up! I'm working cape race." Also several messages were sent to the deck that were never received by Captain Smith.
What else can I help you with?
Who ignored the ice warnings on the Titanic?
John "Jack" Phillips. He snubbed the warning by Evans by saying, "Shut up, shut up! I am busy. I am working on Cape Race." Eventually, Evans felt rejected, so he shut down his radio, and went to bed. That's the reason why when Titanic was sending out distress signals to The Californian, the latter ship didn't respond, because Evans was asleep.
How far away was carpathia when titanic sent her first distress signal?
At about 12:10 a.m Captain Smith told Jack Phillips, titanic's wireless operator, to send out distress signals. The Olympic, the Frankfurt, and the Carpathia responded. Carpathia was the closest and Carpathia told Captain Smith it was 58 miles (93 km) away.
Why did the Carpathia not help?
The crew of the Carpathia couldn't understand the Titanic's distress signals.
What was the name of the ship that was alleged to be 19 miles from the Titanic?
The ship that was closest to the Titanic was the S.S California. It did not respond to the Titanic distress signals because the wireless operator was asleep. The Capathia did respond but it was four hours away traveling at 17.5 knots.
Why do you think the percentage of crew members survived on the titanic was so high?
There were several reasons why so few survived the Titanic disaster. One of which was that there were not enough lifeboats for all the passengers, and of those, very few were filled to capacity. The lifeboat procedures were very disorganized, and because of the confusing layout of the ship, many never reached the boat deck in time. Another reason was the temperature of the water: the North Atlantic is notoriously cold, the water temperature averaging at around 28 degrees. Rather than drowning (because most had life preservers), many Titanic passengers froze to death, floating in the open ocean. Another factor was the lack of available help in the immediate area: the Californian was about 18 miles away, but had her radio turned off, and thus didn't hear Titanic's distress signals. The ship that ended up responding to the calls, the Carpathia, was 58 miles away, too far to reach everyone in time. Titanic sank fairly quickly--about two and a half hours--which didn't allow time for sufficient rescue.

What two other distress signals where sent from the titanic?
shoting and contacting other ships
Did the Californian sink?
No, the Californian did not sink. It was a nearby ship that failed to respond to distress signals from the sinking Titanic in 1912.
How did the dogs survive the titanic?
The owners of the dogs may have been in first class, and would have cared for their dog. Therefore, they may have taken them onto the lifeboat, as they were rich and may have bribed the lifeboat crewmen people.

Can people decline help from a school crossing guard?
Normally, when a school crossing guard is deployed, they are given complete control of that intersection, with a legal authority to do such. Ignoring their signals can be treated in the same manner as if you ignored signals from a police officer.

Didn't someone working on the Titanic forget to show the captain the message about icebergs?
Yes, the wireless at that time, Phillips, received 2 signals calling for the Titanic to turn back. He was very busy that day because the wireless had broken down the other day and he had a TON of messages to send to the passengers' friends and families. On the first signal, he wrote it down and set it aside. On the second one, he replied, "Shut up, shut up, I am busy" Captian Smith never received the message
How does a radar carry out side-lobe blanking?
Side-lobe blanking in radar is a technique used to suppress unwanted signals from antenna sidelobes. It involves setting a threshold level, below which signals from sidelobes are ignored. The radar system compares the received signals to this threshold, and any signals below it are considered noise and are not processed further. This helps improve the radar's ability to detect and track targets by minimizing interference from undesired signals.
