Can a body have acceleration without having velocity?

For a moving body at any instant of time

Assertion : A particle may be momentarily at rest and yet have non-zero acceleration. Reason : The zero velocity of a particle at any instant does not necessarily imply zero acceleration at that instant.

"A lift is ascending with decreasing speed". What are the directions of velocity and acceleration of the lift at the given instant.

Assertion : A body falling freely may do so with constant velocity. Reason : The body falls freely, when acceleration of a body is equal to acceleration due to gravity.

Assertion : A body having uniform speed is circular path has a constant acceleration . Reason : Direction of acceleration is always away from the centre.

The acceleration of a body is zero, what is the nature of its distance-time graph ?

Assertion: If a body is momentarily at rest, it means that force or acceleration are necessarily zero at that instant. Reason: Force on a body at a given time is determined by the direction of motin only.

A : It is not possible to have constant velocity and variable acceleration. R : Accelerated body cannot have constant velocity.
