Titanic

It would take about 3.6 Billion South African Rand to make Titanic

John Jacob Astor IV was the richest person on the Titanic when it sunk. He was an American businessman, real estate builder, investor, inventor, writer, lieutenant colonel in the Spanish-American War, and a prominent member of the Astor family.

No, the sinking of the RMS Titanic was not a natural disaster. By definition, a natural disaster is a disaster caused by natural forces (like a hurricane or an earthquake), rather than by human action.

Though the main cause of the RMS Titanic's sinking was the effect of hitting an iceberg on its maiden voyage in April 1912, the other cause was human error. So, natural causes did not explicitly cause the RMS Titanic to sink.

The Lucitania was a civilian ship torpedoed by a German U-Boat (submarine) during World War II. The official story from the Allies was that it was an unprovoked attack on a civilian ship. The official story from the Axis side is that the Lucitania was secretly smuggling weapons for the war effort and was therefore a legitimate target.

Either way, this incident helped fuel the outrage in the United States against Germany and Italy, and brought the USA closer to participating in the war.

Since the part below the water is 7 times the size of the part above water, the total size of the iceberg can be divided into 8 equal parts (7 parts below water + 1 part above water). Therefore, the fraction of the iceberg above water is 1/8.

No. Titan's interior is likely made of rock and metal while the outer layers are made of various ices. The atmosphere of Titan is made primarily of nitrogen and methane. It is too cold for water to exist as a vapor.

There were 5 deaths at Scotch Cap, 159 in Hawaii and 1 at Santa Cruz. 165 in total.

The funnels on the Titanic were used to release exhaust gases and smoke from the ship's engines. They also served as a ventilation system to help provide fresh air to the engine rooms and boiler rooms below decks. Additionally, they were designed to give the ship its distinctive profile and enhance its aesthetic appeal.

Voyager 2 took off from Cape Canaveral in Florida on August 20th, 1977 on top of a Titan IIIE/Centaur carrier rocket.

The Big Bang theory suggests that the universe began as an extremely hot and dense state around 13.8 billion years ago. Over time, matter and energy expanded and cooled, eventually giving rise to the formation of galaxies, stars, and eventually planets where life could potentially emerge.

Yes. Fourth Officer Joseph G. Boxhall and Quartermaster Alfred Rowe were ordered by Smith to fire distress rockets. These were rockets which burst in a white cluster high enough above the ship to be seen from at least 10-15 miles away or more under favorable conditions. Between 12:45 AM and about 1:45 AM on April 15, 1912, 8 rockets were fired from the sinking Titanic. The only ship that was definitely close enough to see them was the Leyland steamer Californian, whose master, Stanley Lord, inexplicably failed to wake his wireless operator to see if a vessel was in distress. Californian's officers on watch saw all 8 being fired and were only ordered by Lord to try to contact the ship via Morse lamp.

The visible part of an iceberg is called the iceberg's "tip" or "peak," which is above the water surface. However, this visible portion represents only about 10% of the entire iceberg, with the majority of its mass lying submerged beneath the water.

The luxury liner that sank in 1912 on its maiden voyage was the Titanic. It struck an iceberg in the North Atlantic Ocean and tragically sank, resulting in the loss of over 1,500 lives.

It left from Southampton, England, and was travelling to New York City, US.

To determine how much mass the box can hold before sinking in water, you need to calculate its volume and compare it to the volume of water it displaces when fully submerged. The buoyant force acting on the box must be equal to or greater than its weight for it to float. Given the dimensions of the box, find its volume, then calculate the weight of water displaced by that volume to determine the maximum mass it can hold before sinking.

Dr. Robert Ballard utilized the Argo, which was a deep sea underwater craft. Going by what he found when he used the Argo to search for two sunken Navy submarines, he then used it to seach for a debris field. His belief is that Titanic imploded as it sank to the ocean floor. He eventually found the Titanic on September 1, 1985.

The rate at which the Titanic rusted depended on various factors such as water temperature, salinity levels, and oxygen exposure. However, estimates suggest that the ship could be completely consumed by rust within 300 years due to the corrosion caused by the sea water.

There are six classes of nutrients: carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals, and water. Each of these nutrient classes plays a unique and essential role in the proper functioning of the human body.

A joint mission with WHOI and IFREMER, funded by the U.S. Office of Naval Technology, was put together to test to the abilities of these newly developed underwater imaging systems to locate items on the sea floor. Titanic provided a high-profile backdrop for the mission.

The SS Norge was responsible for one of the worst environmental disasters in history in March 1889 when it struck a reef off the coast of Norway, resulting in the deaths of over 600 passengers, most of whom were emigrants. The ship's cargo of sulfuric acid leaked into the sea, causing extensive damage to marine life.

At approximately 11:40pm April 14, 1912 the Titanic struck an iceberg. At 2:20am April 15,1912 the Titanic plunged to the bottom of the ocean.

This occurred between Iceland and New York City.

Technically any ship that sinks will, over time, have effect on the environment. It provides a place for coral and barnacles to grow, attracting fish, shark, and other marine life to an area that may not have been flourishing before the ship sank.
