Centripetal acceleration.
"Acceleration" does not mean "speeding up". Acceleration means any changein the speed or direction of motion. An object with no acceleration moves at aconstant speed in a straight line. If its path is not straight, then the directionof its motion changes, which fits the definition of acceleration.
That's called 'centripetal acceleration'. It's the result of the centripetal forceacting on the object on the curved path.
Acceleration
centrifical force > acceleration (m/s)/s = velocity2 / radius
Centripetal acceleration is acceleration towards the center of the movement.

Acceleration
Objects traveling in a circular path accelerate towards the center of the circle due to centripetal acceleration. This acceleration is needed to keep the object moving in a curved path.

A centripetal force does.
(1) Anything moving in a circle, (2) anything moving along a curved path.
Yes, due to its change in direction of motion.
Actually, objects moving around a circular path have two accelerations i.e. radial acceleration and tangential acceleration. Radial acceleration is towards the radius whereas tangential acceleration is the acceleration along the direction of the tangent to the path of the motion. So, I would say yes, they are accelerated towards the outer edge of the circle.
If a charged particle moves in a magnetic field then Lorentz magnetic force acting will be perpendicular to its movement and so the particle will be taken along a curved path. Lorentz force will be towards the centre of the curved path. Any force facing towards the centre of the curved path is named as centre seeking or centripetal force.
