The first two you might have a chance since the camera is in automatic.
The trick is using flash to stop motion. That is in manual mode.
The camera will increase speed as a priority. Sync is internal and
triggered by a chip.

Flashes typically function well at 50 or 60.

I have synced up at 40 and 25 when working with my view camera. But
then they are special manual mode cameras anyway.

Good grief - that is what you need to experiment with by taking photo's.

Let's say that I change my setting for either aperture, speed, or manual

I set the aperture for depth of focus, and the camera selects the speed.
I set the speed to freeze motion, and the camera selects the aperture.
I put it on manual, and can set both, even intentionally off if I want to.

Now, the question. I turn on the flash.

Does the camera use the settings I put in, or does it go into control of the
camera, and change any of the settings? I have taken many photos of the
same thing at many various settings, and I do know the photos come out
differently. I was just wondering about this part of the camera's actual
functioning.

I apologize for the basic question, but I want to learn this from the ABC's
up, and I have a few missing letters.
