Wherever the conductor wants -- usually right in front of him. Wherever the conductor wants -- usually right in front of him.
Almost all the time, the first violins are seated on the left of the conductor and on the right are cellos or second violins depending on the size of the orchestra.
Greek theatre originated from dancing and singing to the gods before an altar in forest glades. The dancing area was called the orchestra. When it shifted into cities, and actors were added to the singing and dancing chorus, the space in front of the altar where they performed continued to be called the orchestra. Of course the word has a quite different meaning nowadays.

They sit in front because wind instruments are louder, so winds are further back.

They are at the back because they are pound instruments. Sometimes they go to the sides as well. They are also in the back because the percussion players stand up and if they were in the front of the orchestra, you wouldn't be able to see the rest of the orchestra playing.

A good performance flute will be fine. "Pit orchestra" simply means the orchestra is located in a sunken area in front of a stage, called the "pit." There are no particular instruments for a pit orchestra, nor is there any particular size of orchestra that plays in a pit.

There are a number of reasons for this. the first and main is so that the rest of the orchestra can hear them properly. the second is because they could block the rest of the orchestra from the audience if they were in the front, as they take up a lot of room. this could stop all of the sound getting through, and make the rest of the orchestra harder to see. There are other reasons as well
No, as the Romans did not use the chorus in their plays. Remember the difference between the ancient meaning of the word "orchestra" and today's meaning.Today we say orchestra, and mean a group of musical instruments. In our theatres the orchestra is located in a lowered area (the pit) before a stage. In ancient times and orchestra was an area in front of the stage where the chorus stood and danced, sang or recited. This was standard in Greek theater. The Romans did not use the chorus in their theater so they had no orchestra pits and the area was taken over by seating.No, as the Romans did not use the chorus in their plays.
