Ya. As per the formula. Suddenly applied load doubled than gradully applied load.

It is experimentally proved that the stress developed by impact load is twice than developed by gradually applied load.

In case of impact loading the dynamic force experienced by the body is given by P(dyn.) = W*[1+sqrt(1+2h/D)].

Here P = dynamic load experienced by the body.
W = static load which is impacting.
D = stact deflection due to above load.
h = height from which load is acting.

In this case h=0, So dynamic load experienced by the body is twice the load applied. As load to area is stress so stresses induced will be twice.

When the load is applied slowly due to viscous dissipation by the atmosphere only half of the energy is stored as compared to the case when the load is applied suddenly.

Twice stress why & which formula used this it may be more than twice or little less than twice.
