When an earthquake near the epicenter?
The epicenter is the point on the earth's surface vertically above the focus of an earthquake. It is as close to the point of origin of the quake as you can get on the surface. The earthquake is strongest at that point.
The location on earth's surface directly above the focus of an earthquake is the epicenter a close correlation exists between epicenters and plate boundaries is it true or false?
Yes, it is true that the location of the earth's surface is directly above the focus of an earthquake is the epicenter a close correlation exists between epicenters and the plate boundaries.
Is the epicenter of an earthquake far from the earth's center?
Yes, the epicenter of an earthquake is far from the Earth's center. The epicenter is defined as the point on the Earth's surface directly above where the earthquake originates, known as the focus or hypocenter, which is typically located several kilometers beneath the surface.

How close was the town in Haiti to the epicentre?
The town in Haiti was approximately 78 miles (125 kilometers) away from the epicenter of the earthquake.
Why do three circles show the epicenter of an earthquake?
Each circle is actually the radius around a reporting station. To find an earthquake's epicenter, you need at least three reporting stations. The radius around each station should meet at one point, the epicenter. This point should be about the size of a town, depending on how close or far the reporting stations are. With any less than three reporting stations, the exact point of the epicenter may not be located.
