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.
Latitude: 41° 46' NorthLongitude: 50° 14' WestWas Titanic's last reported position when it sank.The Titanic is now resting 12,000 feet (3,700 m) below the surface where the water pressure is over 6,500 pounds per square inch at the following locations (it has broken into two):-Bow - 41° 43' 57" North 49° 56' 49" WestStern - 41° 43' 35" North 49° 56' 54" WestThe last reported position given when sinking was obviously 13.5 miles out as we know for certain where the wreck is now. (It would/could not have drifted that far when sinking).
The North Atlantic Ocean. If you were to go a bit further north you would be near where the Titanic is resting. The location 40 N 50W is northeast of Bermuda, and southeast of Newfoundland. It is due north of the Sargasso Sea, an ocean gyre and area of doldrums (light variable winds), named for the floating clumps of brown seaweed often found there.

The word 'titanic' (lower case t) is an adjective, a word that describes a noun as enormous or gigantic. The word 'Titantic' (capital T) is a noun, a proper noun, the name of a specific ship (RMS Titanic, sunk in the Atlantic Ocean in 1912).

The Titanic was found at 41°43'55"N 49°56'45"W at a depth of 2.5 miles.

The Titanic sank off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada. Fourth Officer Lightoller reported the location as latitude 41° 46' North, longitude 50° 14' West.
The stern section sits on the ocean floor at 41o43'35" N, 49o56'54" W, the boilers are at 41o43'32" N, 49o56'49" W, and the bow is at 41o43'57" N, 49o56'49" W. She continued to drift (and even powered up again briefly) northwest so the crash would have been southeast of these coordinates.

The Titanicw hull was never ripped open by an iceberg and no modern film can show it. Neither can the wreakage. She was sculled by explosive charges and her watertight compartments were open to the sea. Sabotage and murder.
The geographic coordinates of where the Titanic sank is 41*43.5 N 49*56.8 W
Yes, the Titanic did sink after hitting an iceberg.
You would type the coordinates north-south, comma, then east-west. Thanks to Robert Ballard, who found the Titanic back on September 1, 1985, the coordinates are 41.732500 North, -49.946944 West.
Download google earth 5.0 and the search these coordinates: 41°43'36" N, 49°56'54.06" N and you'll see the titanic underwater.
2.5 miles under the Atlantic at coordinates 41o43'55"N, 49o56'45"W.
