The acceleration of a pendulum at the mean position is zero because the force of gravity acting on the pendulum's mass is balanced by the tension in the string. When the pendulum is at its mean position, the forces acting on it are equal and opposite, resulting in a net force of zero and therefore zero acceleration.
Acceleration is maximum at the extreme points of a simple pendulum because that is where the velocity is zero and the direction of acceleration changes from negative to positive (or vice versa). This change in acceleration direction leads to a maximum magnitude of acceleration at the extreme points.
A pendulum zero refers to the equilibrium position of a pendulum, where it is at rest and not swinging. This position is typically at the lowest point of the pendulum's swing.
The time period of a simple pendulum at the center of the Earth would theoretically be zero because there is no gravitational force acting on it. A simple pendulum's period is determined by the acceleration due to gravity, which would be zero at the center of the Earth.
At the equilibrium position, the speed of a pendulum is zero. This is because it momentarily stops before changing direction at the bottom of its swing due to the conservation of mechanical energy.
A pendulum is at rest when it is not swinging, at the lowest point of its swing. This is known as the equilibrium position where the potential energy is at its minimum and the kinetic energy is at zero.

Yes. For example a swinging pendulum has zero velocity at the turning point but acceleration is not zero.
The velocity reaches a maximum, and the pendulum will begin to decelerate. Because the acceleration is the derivative of the velocity, and the derivative at the location of an extrema is zero, the acceleration goes to zero.
When a pendulum reaches its maximum elongation the velocity is zero and the acceleration is maximum

I am not sure what you mean by reversing a zero acceleration. An object's acceleration can, of course, change over time.
Displacement and acceleration are zero at the instant the mass passes through its "rest" position ... the place where it sits motionless when it's not bouncing. Velocity is zero at the extremes of the bounce ... where the expansion and compression of the spring are maximum, and the mass reverses its direction of motion.
Yes; the acceleration is zero when the velocity is at its maximum, that is, at the equilibrium position. Since the force and hence the acceleration always act TOWARDS the equilibrium position (because it's a restorative force), then the force and acceleration must change their sign as the mass crosses the e.p., and therefore must be zero instantaneously at the e.p.
