They determine the centre of an earthquake by using varies of facility, such as sioesomagraph which is a tiny pencdil that measures every milly scond of the tectonic ploate,or a monographs that are signals that detect an earthyquake
I think you mean when. Earthquakes are made by two plates in the ground moving against each other. Its it to predict where because if you are near a plate boundaries (where two plates meet) then it is more likely for an earthquake to occur.
The epicenter i think
well earthquake are usually around the cost Line boundaries
what do you think google's for.
I think it is called the epicenter
14,4oo km away. i think. check calculations to be sure.

Three sizemographs are needed to accuratley locate the earthquake's epicentre, the way to work it out is you draw three radi from the siesmographs to where the earthquake roughly is then you draw circles from that, the point where the three circles overlap is the epicentre.
i dont think so depending on where the epicenter was and how strong the seismic waves were
You can think of this in the same way that satellites work to find your location for the GPS in your car. An earthquake happens and it is picked up on 3+ seismometers. These seismometers measure the waves that the earthquake produced and the velocity at which they are traveling and you look at where all the seismometer calculations run together. You have the epicenter of your earthquake.
I think there are several factors in determining it, like, where the epi center of the earthquake originated, and how deep the earthquake was, also I think there are some kind of bouys in the ocean that can measure stuff.
For those zone, We can take action to forecast its coming and then lessen the lose during the earthquake.

The focus of an earthquake is the underground spot where the rock movement came from. The epicenter is the point on the surface above the focus.
I think you mean "Focus": the Epicentre is the point of maximum movement on the surface above, and that's usually obvious. The focus is located by triangulation and velocity calculations from seismograph data.
