Astrophysics teacher | Tutor for 5 years

I hold a degree in Astrophysics from the University of North Carolina at Asheville. My passion for unraveling the mysteries of the cosmos drives my teaching approach. With a solid foundation in physics and astronomy, I guide students through the wonders of the universe, making complex concepts accessible. Whether it's explaining celestial phenomena or solving equations, I foster a supportive learning environment where curiosity thrives. Let's embark on a journey through the stars together, exploring the vastness of space and the beauty of astrophysical principles.

Questions

  • How does luminosity differ from the brightness of the same object as seen at the earth?

  • What does ultraviolet light from hot stars in very distant galaxies reaches us in the form of?

  • What was Einstein's equation, and what did it tell us about Big Bang?
  • Time travels faster than light. Light has a mass of 0 and according to Einstein nothing can move faster than light if it doesn't have its weight as 0. Then why does time travel faster than light?
  • Is there other intelligent life in our galaxy or an alternate universe?
  • What are the implications of the study of the supernovas that show the universe is increasing its rate of expansion? Why do scientists oppose the idea of an open universe?
  • What is binding energy and mass defect?
  • Mimas, a moon of Saturn has an orbital radius of #1.87 * 10^8# #m#. What is the orbital period?
  • What keeps a satellite up in its orbit about the Earth?
  • What is the speed of a satellite moving in a stable circular orbit about the Earth at a height of 4000 km?
