The student needs to be enrolled in both courses to see the images etc.

no, i don't wanna show them images or videos .. i just want them to see the link and about the link .. but they should not be able to open the link unless they are enrolled into the course..

or if not content .. atleast they should be able to the courses only..

I would guess that you have allowed guess access to physics with no password requirement making it an open course.

I'm sure there are other ways, but you can make use of conditional access to activities when you set them up.

One way I've done it in the past is to set a single question quiz in the top section which asks for a password/key. Once that is entered correctly all the other activities are set to be released. Does rely on a mechanism to provide the key to the correct students - we gave them out in a lecture (ensured the students attended at least the first lecture on their module! lol :D)

I think you could give them access to the course and then use permissions on the individual activities to limit access to them there maybe.
