Panther is a generic term that applies to all members of the Panthera genus and that includes lions, tigers, leopards, snow leopards and jaguars. A lioness would have great difficulty killing a tiger.
No, a lioness is stronger and larger than a panther.
A Black Panther is actually a melanistic (black) jaguar or a melanistic leopard. Both are smaller than lions and tigers and would probably lose a fight to either.

Panther is not a particular animal. It can refer to any big cat from the genus panthera- an African lion, a tiger, a leopard, a snow leopard or a jaguar.
