Are these all pronounced exactly the same way?

Yep. Or maybe you could say that they have a teeny tiny difference, but it's barely noticeable if you aren't listening very closely.

Most likely not, I expect it's the same as what you can do in English, put the stress on different places in a sentence to give different meaning.

Finnish people gets this imprinted from birth, other people thinks "How can this work? 🤨"
