A ball is shot from a compressed air gun at twice its terminal speed. (For the subsequent, suppose the drag force depends on v2)

1. Find the magnitude of the balls initial acceleration, as a multiple of g, if it is shot straight up? Express your answer using one significant figure.

2. Find the magnitude of the ball initial acceleration, as a multiple of g, if it is shot straight down? Express your answer using one significant figure.
