A helicopter flying west begins experiencing an acceleration of 3m/s2 east. Will the magnitude of its velocity increase or decrease?

Answered by maham237 @



The acceleration measures the change in velocity.

Since the acceleration is in the direction opposite to the speed, the velocity eastwards will decrease : its magnitude will first decrease, then it reach 0 m/s, then finally it will increase again.
