What was Mrs J M brown also known as on the Titanic?
She was also known as "The Unsinkable Molly Brown".
============================================
I'm suspecting that you are referring to Maggie Brown, aka The Unsinkable Molly Brown, aka Margaret Tobin Brown, aka Mrs. James J. Brown, but I'm not aware of her ever being known as J. M. Brown.
Mrs Brown was never actually known as either "Molly" or "Unsinkable" in her lifetime. This it transpires was a Hollywood invention, first attributed to Denver Post reporter Gene Fowler and author Carolyn Bancroft in the 1930s. They claimed the "Unsinkable" was in reference to her attitude and wanting to "get things done" as after the sinking Mrs Brown was rescued by the Carpathia, she worked tirelessly, helping the other survivors by handing out food, drinks and blankets. As the ship arrived in New York, Margaret found herself in the spotlight, as everyone had already heard about her bravery and good deeds.

What damage was caused by the iceberg?
the ice grazed the metal but the failure was due to the lack of strength in the iron bolts that held the bits of metal together. to save money they used iron instead of steel so immediatly the ship was doomed. the water tight bulk heads also had a huge impact as they were lowered weaking the entire ship. the bulk heads were lowered because of the demand for the ship being the grandest ship in the world so it had to have a huge sweeping staircase
What speed was the Titanic going when it hit the ice berg?
It was going 26 knots(ocean mph).Or you can say it was going 29.90 Miles per Hour.
According to my search she hit it at a speed of aprox 20.5 knots. This is almost the speed that she was cruising before the berg was spotted. The reason for this is that the berg was spotted at around 600 yards only before reaching it. Also Titanic's steam turnine driven central propeller could not be reversed at all, even worse it couldn't even be stopped at such short notice. As to the wing propellers, they were stopped but couldn't be reversed at such short notice. In Motion Pictures they are all depicted reversing full astern for dramatic purposes.

What is the moral lesson of the Titanic?
Type your answer here... what are the moral lesson from titanic
Just because something is true doesn't mean it has no moral lesson. The love part of the story was made up. I think the moral lesson was probably about class difference. Just because someone is of higher class does not mean they are happy that way or a better person than someone who is of lower class. Also, you never really understand a horrific event before hearing a personal account.
