If the Sun and the Sun's gravity suddenly disappeared, each of the planets would go flying off into space at their orbital velocities. In the case of Earth, that's about 67,000 miles per hour. Depending on where each planet was in its orbit, there might be the possibility for a collision or a near-miss with another planet.

We humans wouldn't really notice; we'd be too busy freezing to death to care.

It would basically move in a straight line, continuing with its current velocity. (Eventually, the gravity of other objects will make it change direction; for example, it would still orbit around the center of the Milky Way, once every 225 million years or so.)

After about 8 minutes, the Earth would "notice" that there is no more gravity from the Sun, and it would move in a straight line, rather than continuing in its elliptical orbit around the Sun.

- it would stay night all the time !! & it will NEVER move . because the force of gravity helps it become day & night so without the moon it will just be night.

Along a geodesic curve, which would be pretty close to a straight line.
