Download the Titanic Facts & Worksheets Had the Titanic proceeded ahead and turned, it is most likely that she would have avoided hitting the iceberg all together. The gash that the iceberg cut into the hull of the Titanic was between 220 to 245 feet long. The total length of the ship was approximately 882 feet. Though the damage in the hull was 220 to 245 feet long, the most recent evidence shows that there was only a 12 square foot opening (the size of a refrigerator) in the hull allowing water inside the ship. The watertight compartments of the Titanic's hull were not actually watertight.

Treating calcified canals Calcification occurs in a coronal to apical direction. As such, calcification is worst in the coronal third of roots. As one progresses apically, canals become more easily negotiable. The clinical implication is that it should become easier to negotiate canals with the apical progression of hand files.

Why did the Titanic Sink? To meet this schedule the Titanic could not afford to slow down. It is believed that Ismay put pressure on Captain Smith to maintain the speed of the ship. It was Thomas Andrews’ fault . The belief that the ship was unsinkable was, in part, due to the fact that the Titanic had sixteen watertight compartments. However, the compartments did not reach as high as they should have done. The White Star Line did not want them to go all the way up because this would have reduced living space in first class.

Why did the Titanic sink? It wasn’t a single factor that sent Titanic to the bottom of the ocean, it was a chain of them. One hundred years ago, the ship that had been called ‘virtually unsinkable’ struck an iceberg and sank within three hours, taking many of her passengers and crew with her. History is clear enough on this point, but a mystery follows- how did the Titanic strike the iceberg in the first place?
