Final answer:
The orange would be in the air for the same amount of time, regardless of whether it is ascending or descending.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer is b) False. When Chef Andy tosses an orange in the air and catches it again at the same height, the time it takes for the orange to be in the air is the same for the upward and downward motion. According to the principles of physics, the time it takes for an object to reach its maximum height when thrown straight up is equal to the time it takes to fall back down to the original height. Therefore, the orange would be in the air for the same amount of time, regardless of whether it is ascending or descending.
