Well, Air resistance is a special type of friction (you cannot classify it in other categories). That force of air-resistance is often observed to oppose the motion of the object,( like every other frictional forces)
Hope this helps!

Using the kinetic energy 1/2mv^2 formula
5*10^5 is the answer
I believe the acceleration would be 5m/s
All you would need to do is divide the final speed by the time it took to get there. I am only about 80 sure this answer is correct, so take my advise only if you feel comfortable.
