A solid sphere moves at a terminal velocity of `20ms^-1` in air at a place where `g=9.8ms^-2`. The sphere is taken in a gravity free hall having air at the same pressure and pushed down at a speed of `20 ms^-1`

A

its initial acceleration will be `9.8ms^-2` downward

B

its initial acceleration will be `9.8ms^-2` upward

C

The magnitude of acceleration will decrease as the time passes.

D

It will eventually stop
