Question

in the geocentric model how many planets are there

Answer 1

In the geocentric model of the universe, which places the Earth at the center, there are typically seven celestial bodies that were considered as planets. These are:

1. Moon (Earth's natural satellite)
2. Mercury
3. Venus
4. Sun
5. Mars
6. Jupiter
7. Saturn

This model was widely accepted in ancient times, particularly in the works of philosophers like Ptolemy. The inclusion of the Sun and Moon, which are not traditional planets, is a characteristic of this model. In total, therefore, you could count these seven bodies as "planets" in the context of the geocentric perspective.
