It depends on where it strikes. Today's quake in Virginia is in a rather sensitive area, as the U.S. east coast is much less prepared for earthquakes than the west coast and building codes are not as strong. A similar earthquake in California would likely cause a lot less damage. Overall, it is a moderate earthquake.
the epicenter was located in the paciffic ocean,near the north east coast of the japense island of honshu.
According to the theory of Plate Tectonics and Pangaea, the east coast boundaries were once connected to the west coast boundaries of Africa, Europe, and parts of north-western Asia. The irregularity of the east coast of the Americas as well as the west coast of the respective continents were caused by the "tearing" of one land mass from the other, an action which did not happen on the west coast resulting in a straighter more regular west coast.
The epicenter for the magnitude 9.0 earthquake in Japan on March 11, 2011 was reported to be 129 kilometers (80 miles) off the east coast of the Oshika Peninsula, Tōhoku, near Sendai.
There are alot of Hurricanes that happen on the east coast.

because there is less earthquake activity on the east coast. because there is less earthquake activity on the east coast.

This is not true. It is not colder on the west coast of the US than the east coast. I am in California and it was 82 degrees yesterday, but the east coast has 7 feet or more of snow. Maybe you are not asking about the US.
What happened as a result of European exploration of north America's east coast? it lead Europeans to begin colonies on the coast.
