String Instruments
The actual count and type of woodwinds instruments required in an orchestra is determined by the composer of the piece. Not every single woodwind instrument is used in every single classical piece.
A full-size orchestra consists of about one hundred musicians, who play instruments in the string, brass, woodwind, and percussion sections. There are also chamber orchestras, which are smaller and consist of fifty musicians or fewer.
I would say the strings section.
Yes. There would often be two horns and two trumpets. Trombones were added in the late Classical period. The tuba wasn't invented until the 1840s, well into the Romantic era.

None, really. The gong is a member of the percussion family, and certainly most every orchestra will have at least one in their inventory of instruments. The gong is not used in every single classical piece ... only used if the composer wanted it played.
