A neap tide
When the gravitational pulls of the sun and moon partially cancel each other out, Earth experiences a neap tide.
Yes, the the gravitational pull of the moon and sun create tides.
Yes, tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the sun and the moon on Earth's oceans. When the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned, the gravitational forces add together to create higher high tides (spring tides), and when they are at right angles, the forces partially cancel out to create lower high tides (neap tides).

The gravitational force between an object and the Earth depends on their masses. Since an elephant has a much greater mass than a human, the gravitational force between the elephant and the Earth is stronger than that between you and the Earth. Therefore, the elephant experiences a stronger gravitational pull from the Earth compared to you.

Because there is no range limit on the gravitational force, the gravitational force of the earth is only zero in the exact centre of the earth, where it cancels itself out. Realistically, the force is so small outside the immediate vicinity of earth, that it may as well be zero.
If gravity on the surface of Earth is 9.8Nkg, then at the centre it would be 0Nkg
The Moon does not just go around the Earth. In reality, the two objects orbit about a common gravitational midpoint, called a barycenter. The mass of each object and the distance between them dictates that this barycenter is inside Earth, about three-fourths of the way out from the center.
When a body leaves Earth's gravitational force, it enters a state of free fall or microgravity, where it experiences weightlessness. The body follows a trajectory determined by its initial velocity and any other gravitational influences, such as those from the Moon or other celestial bodies. As it moves away from Earth, it gradually experiences a decrease in gravitational pull, eventually becoming influenced primarily by the gravity of other bodies in space. If the velocity is sufficient, it may enter orbit or escape Earth's gravitational field entirely.
