Constant velocity is a measure of distance traveled per unit of time at a uniform speed, such as miles per hour or feet per second. Constant acceleration is a measure of a continuing increase in velocity per unit of time, as when a car speeds up from 30 miles per hour to 40 miles per hour in 5 seconds, then from 40 miles per hour to 50 miles per hour during the next 5 seconds. It will then have had a constant acceleration of 10 miles per hour per 5 seconds.

If your velocity is constant, then your acceleration is zero.
You can't. Acceleration is change in velocity. If given a constant velocity, the acceleration is zero.
velocity = distance / time There are also some formulae involving acceleration; for example, in the case of constant acceleration: velocity = initial velocity + acceleration x time If the acceleration is not constant, an integral is used instead.
The velocity increases at a constant rate.
The acceleration would be zero because the turtle is moving at a constant speed
