A: "accessible" usually means everyone has access to, so for example, if you were disabled and needed special care, you could ask "Is this bus accessible?"

"Available" usually means ready for purchase. A website or store will have "available" if the item is in stock.

A: “A thing has to be existent to be accessible or inaccessible.

Consider these sentences:

There is no flight available.
It can mean there are flights, but they are booked out or otherwise - well not available. It can also mean, there are no flights at all.

The building is not accessible.
It means that some measure or circumstance precludes me from entering the building. I cannot enter.

Otherwise dictionary entries will tell you that accessible means in the relevant meanings:

accessible 1 (of a place) able to be reached or entered.

1.1 Able to be easily obtained or used.

available 1 Able to be used or obtained; at someone's disposal.

1.1 (of a person) not otherwise occupied; free to do something.
Thus, available is more about being there, not occupied, ready to be used. On the other hand accessible in its primary meaning is more about getting to something or in our age also being allowed to do something.

The website was available for browsing but the private section was inaccessible due to password restrictions.”

This answer from this website is the best explanation I’ve found. https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/350601/what-is-the-difference-between-available-and-accessible

A: 1. Available is used when talking about items, spaces or appointments.
eg. This shirt is available in 2 colours. (item/object)
eg. The hotel only has one available room right now. (space)
eg. The doctor will only be available next week. (appointments/time)
2. Accessible is used mostly when talking about spaces. When we say something is accessible, we're talking about whether something is easily available. Accessibility is typically used when talking about different groups of people/what kind of people can enter or use a space.
eg. This building is not wheelchair accessible. (People who use wheelchairs will not be able to enter the building.)
eg. If you're eating at a restaurant, you may see a staff room, and a sign that says "The staff room is not accessible to members of the public." (only people who work at the restaurant can enter/use the room)

A: Accessible is when someone or something can able to do something easily without any constraints.

Affordable is something that can be purchased by someone with the extra disposable income to spend

A: This comes from the base words "access" (=reach) and "avail" (=use). Adding -able/-ible, you get "can be reached" and "can be used".

"This hotel is not accessible in the winter because of snow."

"This topic is accessible even to beginners."

"That book will not be available until June"

"Let me know when you are available and we can schedule an appointment."
