We can't be sure of exactly where it was on the surface when it

hit the iceberg, or when it broke up and began to sink. But today,

the middle of the bow (front) section rests on the bottom at 41.7272° north latitude

49.9484° west longitude, while the middle of the stern (rear) section is at 41.7344° north latitude

49.9482° west longitude.

Why do you use the system of longitude and latitude what happen if you stop using these coordinates?

If you stop ,the military and other peoples who reads maps e.g. Captain of theship ,can't locate the places.for example when the captain crew tells the captainthere is a ship at a specific place ,instead of saying the name of the place they canjust say the longitude and the latitudes of the place ant the captain can find theplace more easily!================================This is especially important when you're dealing with places that have no namesand no recognizable description ... like the place where the Titanic sank, or anyother place out at sea.The effect is exactly the same as trying to find your doctor's new office, or sendyour friend a letter, without street addresses.

What did Captain Rostron order his company to rescue the survivors on the Titanic?

Carpathia's wireless operator was sending overflow messages from Cape Race, Newfoundland meant for Titanic, and received in return a distress signal. He then woke up Captain Rostron, who then in turn set coordinates to intercept Titanic as fast as the ship was able. The last known coordinates of the Titanic placed her at 58 miles (93 kilometers) away. Even with heating and water shut off to maximize the Carpathia's speed, it took her 4 hours to arrive.
