No. That would be California. (edit) actually, It is Alaska. Check out the related link below.
Florida and North Dakota have the fewest earthquakes in the US.
Yes.
the 2 states with the LARGEST amount of Earthquakes per year are Hawii & Alaska (FACT)
No it is not. In fact these states are the ones that have the most and strongest earthquakes Texas, Nevada, Arizona, Washington, and California. The reason that you hear about California so much is because California it is right by the fault line. So the plates collide mostly on the border of the US, which is California.
We typically use the word "epicenter" when discussing earthquakes, so the lat/long of the epicenter would depend on the earthquake under discussion. You can see each of the recent earthquakes on the US Geological Survey's web page at the link below.
Yes earthquakes start at the epicentre and in waves the energy ripples out across continents giving us the shaking feeling like an earthquake is happening.
California
Florida
Earthquakes can occur in any state, but California experiences the most earthquakes due to its location along the San Andreas Fault. Other states with a higher frequency of earthquakes include Alaska, Nevada, and Oklahoma.
The focus is below ground that is where the earth quake happens. The epicenter is above because that is where it is located

Florida is primarily in the seismically inactive zone of Zone 0. However, certain areas of the state, such as the southern tip of the state, are located near the boundary of Zone 1, which has a low probability of experiencing earthquakes.
The Good Friday Earthquake on March 27, 1964 had its epicenter near Prince Wiliam Sound, Alaska. It lasted about 5 minutes, and caused 131 deaths, but it may not be true.This earthquake was the 4th most powerful earthquake ever recorded, and the most powerful earthquake to have an epicenter in the United States.
It is a US state.
Florida is the only state in the continental US that has never had a recorded earthquake. The lack of earthquakes in Florida is due to the state's location away from tectonic plate boundaries, which are typically the main cause of seismic activity.
The US Naval Academy is located in Annapolis, Maryland.
