Product Summary
Yenka Light and Sound, one of the latest Yenka tools, lets you experiment with sound, water and light waves, and ray diagrams and has been developed from the acclaimed Crocodile Physics and works seamlessly with (or without) interactive white boards. Yenka is modelling software which lets you simulate concepts and create content easily.
Yenka Light and Sound covers all of the optics and waves simulations that was found in Crocodile Physics. It lets you experiment with water, sound or EM waves, as well as modelling ray diagrams for optical systems.
Optics
A powerful optics simulator, with a range of components including lenses, prisms, mirrors and light sources, lets you model ray diagrams.
You can import your own images and investigate how they look when viewed in lenses in mirrors. As shown below, intensity and blurring are modelled.
The rays from the object are drawn as you simulate, letting you trace their path through the optical system.
Properties for all of the optical components can be changed, either by dragging with the mouse or by typing in new values. You can also position the components however you like - a true virtual workbench.
Waves
Yenka lets you take a top-down view of wave propagation, and study key phenomena - such as refraction, interference, diffraction and reflection - with water, sound or EM waves.
Point or plane wave sources, and a moving source whose velocity and bearing you can control, generate waves. You can also control the frequency, phase and amplitude of each source.
Add obstacles, reflectors and slits to investigate reflection, refraction, diffraction and interference. Position these components wherever you want, and control properties like size, orientation, damping, slit spacing and width, and the material from which each is made. You might also like
