Answer:

Option (1)

Explanation:

In the Copernicus's model of the solar system, the sun was present at the centre of the universe and all the rest of the planets including the sun, stars revolve around it. Initially, it was believed that the planets move in a circular path, but later after much research, it has been discovered that the planets' orbits are in an elliptical path.

According to the Ptolemy's model of the solar system, the earth was believed to be present at the centre of the universe and all other planets, including the sun and stars orbits around it in a circular path. The earth was considered to be fixed.

Both of them had the same interest but they obtained different data by carrying out different experiments. Due to this, their interpretations were also not the same.

Copernicus's model was accepted widely as it was able to explain the facts that are true regarding the solar system.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
