MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

If a free falling object takes 10s to travel upward, what is the total time the object is in the air?

0s because of symmetry and Tup = +10s, so Tdown = -10s. Which means that Ttotal = 0s.
20s because of symmetry and Tup = 10s, so Tdown = 10s. Which means that Ttotal = 20s.
Greater than 10s, but less than 20s because the object would fall faster than it rose because of gravity. Without more information, you cannot calculate this number.
Less than 10s because the object begins falling back before the 10s and it falls faster than it rises.
