The farther you go from the epicenter, the seismic waves become weaker.

The proximity of the epicentre to populated or urban areas will effect the damage caused as the closer the earthquake's epicentre, the more energy will be retained by the earthquake waves and so the greater their capacity to cause damage.
It is because the epicenter decreases their strenght as it is closer to it
true
Decrease and become closer to the dewpoint. :-)
This is true; a seismic wave weakens the farther it travels, and thus has lower intensity.
Because the force of the earthquake is strong.

No because the epicenter is right on top of the center of the quake.

Your standing on it! P-waves travel faster than S-waves through the Earth. As such the further away a seismometer station is from the epicentre of an Earthquake, the larger the difference between arrival times will be. By the same logic this means that the closer you get to the epicentre, the smaller the difference in arrival time will be until your at the epicentre when the difference will be zero!

No, the location of a city is unknown by and irrelevant to the earthquake.

The USGS reported that the quake shifted portions of northeastern Japan by as much as 2.4 m (7.9 ft) closer to North America and made portions of Japan's landmass wider than before. This was a result of the 9.0 magnitude earthquake on March 11, 2011.
