Archimede

Good morning Anna and Bianca. Yes, of course.... ask me! what do you want to know?

anna&bianca

Thank you Archimede, our question is: Why did Titanic sink?

Archimede

Are you serious?

anna&bianca

Yes, we are. We don't want to disturb you. If you don't want to answer, we will
search on internet.

Archimede

No, it isn't a problem. I will answer.

anna&bianca

Thank you!!

Archimede

Ok. first of all . Titanic sank because it struck against an inceberg, so the boat broke down and the water started to come in.

anna&bianca

And What's happen after that ?

Archimede

The water increase the boat's density. For this reason the boat's density became higher than the sea's density. Just remember that if the density of an object is higher than the water's density: the object will sink. That' s what happen to Titanic.
