Crocodilia for Crocodile Physics

You can now 'play' with Crocodile Physics at home!

You are able to download the program onto your home computer. The school has paid the subscription.

Our user name is Student.WolveGirls - and the password is the same as for the extranet.....

the only subscription we are paid up for is Physics - so select that from the drop-down menu for 'subscription'

  • Click on the icon on the left and go to the welcome page.
  • You now need to select the 'downloads' tab.
  • Now click on the pink Home Use button
  • You are now on the downloads page. Select the version you want to download and click on it
  • The page will contain a code e.g. CP701YU-327-OSVVR. You must make a note of the code you are given! You cannot just copy it to paste in later - it has to be enetered in three seperate parts!
  • A box will then open asking for permission to download the program.
  • When you activate the program you will be asked for the name of the organisation and the code you were given.
  • The program will be valid for 30 days... at the end of that time you will need to refresh it by going through the process again..

There are several aspects to the program - forces, light (optics), energy, electrical circuits, waves... that relate to you in different years. take a look! (the reference here is not exhaustive!

Y7

Simple circuits; series circuits, parallel circuits

Forces: friction, mass and weight, unequal forces

Space: eclipses (in optics other examples section)
Y8

Waves: speed of sound, loudness and pitch, ultrasound

Optics: reflection, refraction, Colour - in other exaples, the eye, rainbow, shadows
Y9
 Describing motion: v/t graphs and s/t graphs, acceleration, toppling forces
Y10 and Y11

Optics: reflection, refraction, TIR (in other examples), periscopes, lenses, magnifying glass, telescopes, camera, mirrors
