Acceleration is the derivative of velocity, meaning a change in velocity. Velocity is a vector, comprised of magnitude and direction, that is speed and where you are heading. Thus, turning, changing lanes, flipping the car while on cruise control, etc, would all comprise a change in velocity (specifically the direction) and thus is an accelaration.
It is a speedometer.
Speedometer
It indicates the speed of the car.
That would be called the speedometer.

No, a particle cannot accelerate if its speed is constant. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, and if the speed (magnitude of velocity) remains constant, then the acceleration is zero.
No, a car does not accelerate when rounding a curve at a constant speed. Acceleration occurs when there is a change in speed or direction. In this case, the car is moving at a constant speed but is changing direction, not accelerating.
Light does not accelerate in the traditional sense, as it always travels at a constant speed of approximately 299,792 kilometers per second in a vacuum. This speed is a fundamental constant in physics known as the speed of light.
no
Yes. A straight line indicates constant speed =dy/dt= kt.
No, an object cannot accelerate and have a constant speed at the same time. Acceleration is a change in velocity, which includes speed or direction. If an object has a constant speed, it means there is no acceleration occurring.
A car can accelerate even if its speed is constant by changing its direction or increasing its velocity. For example, if a car is moving in a circle, it is constantly changing its direction, resulting in acceleration. Additionally, if a car is moving at a constant speed and then speeds up, it is also accelerating.
