Urvashi - your physics tutor
Hello! I am Urvashi, a professional educator with an M.Sc. in Chemistry and a Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.). My background in the sciences allows me to bring a unique, logic-driven perspective to Physics, helping students master both the theory and the mathematical application of the subject. With six years of school teaching experience and a history of tutoring international students, I specialize in making Physics accessible. I cover everything from foundational Mechanics to advanced Optics, Electromagnetism, and Modern Physics. I believe that if you can visualize a problem, you can solve it; therefore, I prioritize "Logic over Memorization." My Teaching Approach: • Visual Learning: I use ray diagrams, free-body diagrams, and step-by-step flowcharts to simplify complex motion and forces. • Conceptual Clarity: We break down laws (like Newton's or Faraday's) into relatable, real-world examples. • Exam Strategy: I focus on avoiding common pitfalls and mastering the mathematical precision required for top grades. • Patient Mentorship: I provide a supportive environment tailored to your pace, ensuring no question goes unanswered. Physics is the key to understanding the universe. My goal is to give you the tools and confidence to excel in your exams and develop a genuine love for the subject. Let’s work together to reach your academic goals!

Physics concepts taught by Urvashi
The Student and Tutor reviewed key concepts in thermochemistry, including definitions of endothermic and exothermic reactions, enthalpy change calculations, and methods for representing these changes. They discussed the energy involved in bond breaking and formation, as well as examples of each type of reaction. The session aimed to prepare the Student for an upcoming test.
Thermochemistry Fundamentals
Enthalpy (ΔH) & Its Calculation
Exothermic vs. Endothermic Reactions
Bond Energy and Reaction Enthalpy
Representing Enthalpy Changes
Molar Enthalpy Change
Student and Tutor reviewed key concepts of Uniform Circular Motion, including angular displacement, angular velocity, and centripetal force and acceleration. They practiced applying these concepts through various real-world examples, such as a car on a banked road and a car in a vertical loop. The session also covered Newton's Laws in the context of circular motion and the calculation of work done.
Uniform Circular Motion (UCM) Fundamentals
Centripetal Force and Acceleration
Work Done and Energy Conservation in UCM
Identifying Centripetal Force in Real-World Scenarios
The Tutor introduced the Student to Year 2 Physics, focusing on circular motion concepts including centripetal force, angular displacement, and angular speed. They covered definitions, units, and the conversion between radians and degrees, deriving key formulas. The Student is expected to send their formula sheet, and the next session will involve algebra-based problems and vertical circular motion.
Centripetal Force & Circular Motion Fundamentals
Relating Linear Speed (v) to Angular Speed (ω)
Angular Speed
Time Period (T)
and Frequency (f)
Angular Speed (ω)
Angular Displacement (θ) and Radians
The Student and Tutor reviewed concepts of relative motion, including scenarios with moving frames of reference, and then moved on to projectile motion. They practiced solving problems involving boats crossing rivers and projectiles launched at angles and horizontally, including calculating velocity components, time of flight, and range. The next lessons were scheduled for Wednesday and Saturday evenings to cover remaining topics before the Student's upcoming exams.
Projectile Motion (Horizontal Launch)
Significant Figures and Units
Projectile Motion (Angled Launch)
Relative Velocity
The Student reviewed notes on the photoelectric effect, atomic spectra, and wave-particle duality with the Tutor. They explored electron diffraction experiments, the De Broglie wavelength, and the principles of laser production, specifically stimulated emission. The Tutor planned to continue the discussion on laser systems in the next session.
Photoelectric Effect
Atomic Excitation and Ionization
Wave-Particle Duality of Matter (de Broglie Hypothesis)
LASER (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation)
The Tutor and Student reviewed the photoelectric effect, focusing on graphical representations of intensity, potential, and frequency versus photoelectric current. They also discussed atomic absorption and emission spectra, linking them to energy level transitions and associated photon energies, and planned to cover wave-particle duality in the next session.
Photoelectric Effect: Intensity vs. Frequency
Stopping Potential and Work Function
Atomic Spectra: Absorption vs. Emission
