What will be the mass of a body at the centre of the earth as compared to other places on the earth?

Mass is conserved which means that a body will have the same mass wherever it goes.
But at the centre of a masive sphere the body has no gravity acting on it so its weight is zero.
At an intermediated radius the force on it is obviously less than at the surface, and Isac Newton proved that a body at a given distance inside a sphere feels a gravitational force from a sub-sphere of radius equal the distance of the body from the centre. In other words the body feels no gravity from the shell outside its own radius.

Why was Nicolas Coperincus important to science?

Where is the geocentric on the sun?
Geocentric is not a place, rather it is the name for the model of the solar system which places the earth at the centre and all other bodies revolve around it. This was considered the correct model for centuries. The heliocentric model places the sun at the centre of the solar system and all other bodies rotate around the sun. We now know this is the correct configuration.
