When do I use "somebody" and when do I use "someone" in a sentence?

Answer 1

"Someone" is more than "somebody" because we are more than just a body, thus when referring to a total human-being: body, mind, spirit, and soul--"somebody" is inadequate although correct, someone is better.
Also:
there is a difference between the two words in that “someone” is more likely to be acted upon in a sentence than is “somebody”.

Answer 2

u use somebody when u talk 2 a group
and someone when u talk 1 person

Answer 3

An interesting thing to do for this kind of question, especially when people say it's basically the same, is to go to www.google.com, and type each word into the search box.

You will see that the number of instances of the use of each word is quite different, and you will see many examples of how it is used. The difference is very subtle, and has more to do with association with other words than with a difference in meaning. This is my opinion, in any case.
