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

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.
