Narrative:
We were at 5;000 feet headed direct to pvd. We received a traffic alert. ATC told us to turn right to a heading of 060; which I did. Then we received the RA which first said 'monitor vertical speed'. The top of the ivsi turned red. I clicked auto pilot off using the trim tab and held altitude and heading. Then the RA said 'descend descend'. I pushed forward and began the descent as ATC told us to climb to 5;500 feet. TCAS said 'clear of conflict'. The ca climbed to 5;500 feet on a heading of 060. As TCAS said 'clear of conflict' we saw a king air pass from right to left in front of us in a climbing left bank. It was tan with two stripes that appeared brown and navy blue. The north numbers appeared navy blue. I then flew the rest of way to pvd and landed without incident.
