In the 1998's and 1999's they said that they will wait and see to discover no answer yet.
the suns gravitational pull is strongest because the earth is at its closest point to the sun.
Its pull on the earth would be 25% as strong.
No, since Earth is much closer to the Moon than the Sun, the suns gravitational effect on the Moon's orbit is negligible.
Because even though the sun's gravity is much stronger than Earth's overall, Earth's gravity is stronger on Earth's surface and in space around Earth because Earth is 93 million miles from the sun.
Without gravity the Earth would go off into outer space where it's cold and dark and the temperature on Earth would probably fall to about -250 degrees C. The Sun's gravity keeps us in a nice nearly-circular orbit so that we can have a good time.
Neap tide
A larger, more powerful tide to the side of the moon, and a weaker, smaller tide toward the sun
At the poles
Because the sun is 93 million miles away, whereas the earth is, well, right here!

The su does not move the earth moves around the sun by the suns gravitational pull

The magnitude of the force would decrease greatly.

Mainly because we are in "free fall" around the Sun. In such situations, gravity won't be noticed. Also, Earth's gravitational force is much stronger, anyway, because Earth is much closer.
