Constant velocity is, well, constant. To measure it, measure the displacement through a given or fixed period of time. You'll have distance and time. Distance per unit time is speed. Distance per unit time (speed) with a direction vector is velocity. Velocity is speed in a given direction. If something is moving at constant velocity, it is moving at a constant speed in one direction. No changes in speed (no positive or negative acceleration, or, said another way, no acceleration at all), and no change in direction or heading.
"Constant" means that regardless of when you measure it, the result is always the same. "Velocity" means speed and its direction. "Acceleration" means the rate at which speed is changing, and the direction in which it's changing.
No, an object cannot have constant velocity and variable speed. Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both speed and direction. If the object's velocity is constant, then its speed must also be constant.
constant slope. really anything will work as long as it stays the same. so if your line is straight then you have a constant velocity. :)
Yes, it is. Trajectory also depends of direction of acceleration, not only it's magnitude. When you consider circular orbit, the agnitude of centripetal acceleration is constant, but the vector directions changes every moment to point constantly at the center.
An object in uniform circular motion undergoes constant acceleration but moves at constant "speed".Constant "velocity" means no acceleration.

Yes. Zero velocity is a velocity; if it is always zero then it is a constant velocity.

If your velocity is constant, then your acceleration is zero.

constant acceleration is a measure of a continuing increase in velocity per unit of time. another way to express it is: d²x/dt² = c where c is a constant

Yes, speed is the scalar of velocity.
Constant velocity means constant speed in a straight line.
Terminal velocity is reached when the forces of gravity and air resistance acting on an object are equal, causing the object to no longer accelerate. To measure when an object has reached terminal velocity, you can observe that the object falls at a constant speed without speeding up. This can be done by measuring the object's velocity as it falls and noting when it remains constant.
No, an object cannot accelerate if its velocity is constant. Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity, so if the velocity of an object is constant, its acceleration is zero.
