I think it would have sank faster. Depends on lots of variables. Assuming it would have been a pretty square hit at 20ish knots, it would have probably crumpled like a beer can,

I believe newtons third law would come into play on a direct hit. The titanic would have been hit back with as much pressure as it put on the iceberg. F= mass x acc. So a ship that heavy moving 20 knots would put a hella amount of pressure on the front. Thus causing the ship to crush like an accordian
