Yes. Eg : in case of a uniform circular motion.
In general, for every motion in which direction of motion of particle keeps changing continuously and the particle moves with same speed, then the net acceleration is non-zero, although tangential acceleration is zero.
Yes. "Acceleration" does not mean "speeding up". It means any change in speedor direction of motion. If the body is moving on a curve, even at a constant speed,its direction is changing, so there is acceleration.
No, a body moving at a constant speed cannot be accelerating. Acceleration is defined as a change in velocity over time, so if the speed of the body remains constant, there is no acceleration. For example, a car moving at a steady 60 mph on a straight road is not accelerating.
Yes, a body can be in motion but have zero acceleration if it is moving at a constant speed in a straight line. Acceleration measures the rate of change of velocity, so if velocity is constant, acceleration is zero even though the body is in motion.
A body is being accelerated if its speed OR direction are changing.A satellite in a perfectly circular orbit around the earth ... like a TV satellite ... is moving at constant speed. But, technically, since its direction is always changing, to keep it on a circle, it's experiencing constant acceleration.

A body moving with constant speed in a circular path has acceleration changing at every point.

If body is moving in a circle with uniform or constant speed its acceleration will be uniform as velocity i.e. to say direction is changing at every point.
An object moves with constant velocity when there is no net force acting upon it. If there are no forces acting on an object, or if the forces acting on it "cancel out" leaving a net force of zero acting on the object, it will have zero acceleration. With a zero acceleration, the velocity of the object will be constant.
Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity over a given time period. Velocity is a vector quantity: it includes speed and direction. That being said, you can accelerate an object without changing its speed by simply changing its direction. A body moving along the circumference of a circle its speed may remain a constant, but its velocity will not be a constant since its direction of motion continuously changes, since the velocity changes it has an acceleration.

No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.No; acceleration means the velocity changes.

A body can have a constant speed yet a nonzero acceleration when it is in a circular motion because though it is having a constant speed but the direction in which it is moving keeps changing at each instance and since acceleration is a vector quantity,it becomes non-zero.
This statement is true. This type of movement is called Uniform Circular Motion. For every circular motion at constant speed, there is a constant radial acceleration (always pointing towards the center of the circle) named centripetal acceleration. This constant acceleration ensures that at every moment during the motion the orientation of the velocity is changed so that the object stays in a circular path.
