You can be accelerating and traveling at a constant speed if you change directions.
If you are traveling at a constant speed with changing direction there is a change in velocity, so you are accelerating.
No. 'Acceleration' means a change in speed or direction over time. If the car is moving at a constant speed in a constant direction, then it isn't accelerating.
No. An object traveling at a constant velocity is not accelerating.
No. An object is accelerating if it is changing speed or direction of travel. Since the person in question is running at a constant speed in a straight line, they are not accelerating.
If it's going at a constant speed then it is not accelerating. To accelerate would mean to have a rate of change for speed in some direction. If the ball is going outward while traveling at a constant speed due to centrifugal force then it is accelerating. If it's going inwards due to some ground angle then it is also accelerating. From Newton's laws we know that to have a circular motion, an object must be subject to a force directed to the centre of the structure and is accelerating in that direction. This centrifugal force, exerted by the structure to the ball, is opposite in direction and magnitude to the 'fictitious' centrifugal force.

0. "Constant speed" means it is not accelerating.

That's correct.
true
No. An object traveling at a constant velocity is not accelerating.
A constant speed means that the horse is neither accelerating nor decelearating Speed is a scalar which means it has a magnitude but no direction, while acceleration is a vector so it has both a magnitude and a direction. As the magnitude of the speed remains constant, the speed is constant but since the direction the horse travels in changes that horse is in fact accelerating.

If you turn your vehicle in another direction, even at a constant speed, you will experience acceleration (sideways) because the vector direction has changed through the application of force.
An accelerating object is one that is changing in either speed or direction. Thus any object that is turning is accelerating while maintaining a constant speed.
Since acceleration involves a change in velocity, and object might be accelerating even though its speed is constant.
