Answer --It was 190 meters and the top of it was only 1/2 a meter. It made a massive tear along the side of the ship.

Answer

--No one knows exactly for sure, but it had to be around 100-200ft in diameter to sink the Titanic, which was at one time the biggest passenger steamship ever built.

Answer

The exact size of the iceberg that hit the Titanic in 1912 will probably never be known. But scientists have guessed based on experiments that it was 50 to 100 feet high and 200 to 400 feet long Answer

They are not certain, but to do the damage that it did it would have to have weighed somewhere around 100,000 tons minimum.

Answer

The iceberg that hit the titanic was about 200 feet wide and about 100 feet tall.
According to the internet page "Titanic-nautical" it was about 50 to 100 feet (15 to 30 meters) high.
No one knows for sure the exact size of the iceburg, but keep in mind that the part we see floating at the surface of the water is only about 10% of the actual size of an iceburg as the majority of it is below the surface of the water.

1mm-1mm

Not sure what that previous part means but it is utterly wrong of course.

Nobody knows how big it was and estimates vary from 800 foot top to bottom and 4-500 feet across (highly unlikely that far south to be frank!) and a more realistic 2-300 feet in total height and about the same across. Either way it was ample big enough to cause a geat deal of damage. We do know the stories of boys kicking chunks of ice on the main deck but these stories do not suggest anything about ice on the promenade or boat decks at all so it is unlikely the iceberg was as high as the ship. It didn't need to be like a mountain looming over them out of the darkness to do the damage, as is suggested in some films!

It's difficult to give it's exact dimensions, but it was of moderate size, it's peak being just slightly below the height of the ship's funnel.

A photograph was taken by a crew member of the German liner Hamborg that swept the wreck site the day after the disaster to recover bodies and floating debris, of a triangular 'berg with a rectangular base. It wasn't very big, but it did have a suspicious streak of dark red along it's base- there is thus a possibility that this could have been the 'berg that sank the Titanicand the red streak was paint from the liner's hull below the waterline.

around 900,000 meters big because most of it was under water so you cant see it unless you were under water

We can't know exactly because we don't know how wide it was but the upper 10% was about 96 feet above the waterline. This means that it was far larger than Titanic.

It will likely never be known, but newspaper reports claim that the iceberg that the Titanic struck was anywhere from 50-100 feet high, and 200-400 feet long.
