I am a average physician. The above task seems simple. What area of
Physics is this job for?

Most important how much salary / month will I get?

I am looking for some part time I can devote 3-4 hours a day.  It
would be fun doing such a job.

Why would one appoint a swine to guard the farm's seed corn?

Why would a physician feel he is qualified as a physicist?

The task is not simple; only your perception of it is simple.

I used to perform a similar function for the Bureau of Mines.
Presentation required B.S. level education in the subject matter, good
organizational skills, good stage presence, and superb ability to
think on your feet when answering questions from the audience.
Developing the demonstrations required M.S. level understanding of the
subject matter, and maintaining a website requires more than simple
computer competence as well as diligence and attention to detail.
Dealing with the bureaucrats of NSF and DOE as well as the eggheads of
the APS requires political skills and tact.

From what I've seen, you don't begin to qualify.
