Towards the center of the motion.
In circular motion an object accelerates towards the radius of the circle but its velocity is unchanged
No! Carousels move in a circle (at least all the carousels I know do) in circular motion there is constant acceleration directed towards the center of the circle of magnitude a=v2/r
centripetal acceleration
A centripetal force - that is, a force that accelerates the body towards the center of the circle.

When an object moves in a circular path, it accelerates toward the center of the circle due to the centripetal acceleration. This acceleration is necessary to keep the object moving in a curved path rather than in a straight line.
Towards the center of the motion.

In the case of circular movement, the centripetal force points towards the center of the circle.
A centripetal force is a force that pulls something, that is moving in a circle, towards the center - in other words, keeping it in circular motion.
Yes. That follows from Newton's Second Law: without a centripetal force, there could be no centripetal acceleration. Since the car accelerates towards the center of the circle, it follows that there must be a force that causes this acceleration.

When an object is moving in a uniform circular motion while traveling in a circular path, this means it has a constant speed. When an object is moving in a circular path, this indicates it is constantly being pulled towards the center of the circle.
If the speed of the object doesn't change, then yes.
True. Objects moving along a circular path experience centripetal acceleration that points towards the center of the circle. This acceleration keeps the object moving in its circular path rather than flying off in a straight line.
