Explore the differences between how a car’s internal combustion engine and an electric vehicle’s induction motor use fuel.--In 2015, two men drove a Volkswagen across the US on just over 100 gallons of fuel. Their 81-mile-per-gallon performance doubled the car’s estimated fuel rating, and set the record for the lowest fuel consumption ride of a diesel car. The duo were experts in techniques that maximize fuel efficiency. So, how did their strategy save fuel? Shannon Odell explores what’s going on beneath a car’s hood.Lesson by Shannon Odell, directed by Kevin Herrmann, AIM Creative Studios.This video made possible in collaboration with Speed & ScaleLearn more about how TED-Ed partnerships work: https://bit.ly/TEDEdPartnerA special thanks to Daniel Sperling and Shima Nazari who provided information and insights for the development of this video.Support Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/this-is-what-happens-when-you-hit-the-gas-shannon-odellDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/this-is-what-happens-when-you-hit-the-gas-shannon-odell#digdeeperAnimator's website: https://aimcreativestudios.comMusic: https://soundcloud.com/aim-music----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!

Discover the adaptation of the pharyngeal jaw, a secondary set of jaws that allow fish to capture and eat their prey at the same time. Uploaded 29-06-21--After stalking a cuttlefish, a moray eel finally pounces. As the eel snags the mollusk in its teeth, its prey struggles to escape. But before it can wiggle away, a second set of teeth lunge from the eel’s throat. This adaptation is called a pharyngeal jaw, and is one of the most common adaptations under the sea. Darien Satterfield shares how this incredible skeletal mechanism works.Lesson by Darien Satterfield, directed by Zack Williams.Support Our Non-Profit Mission----------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: http://bit.ly/TEDEdPatreonCheck out our merch: http://bit.ly/TEDEDShop----------------------------------------------Connect With Us----------------------------------------------Sign up for our newsletter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdNewsletterFollow us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/TEDEdFacebookFind us on Twitter: http://bit.ly/TEDEdTwitterPeep us on Instagram: http://bit.ly/TEDEdInstagram----------------------------------------------Keep Learning----------------------------------------------View full lesson: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/real-life-alien-jaws-darien-satterfieldDig deeper with additional resources: https://ed.ted.com/lessons/real-life-alien-jaws-darien-satterfield#digdeeperAnimator's website: https://zackwilliams.work Composer: https://cargocollective.com/maxwellsorensen----------------------------------------------Thank you so much to our patrons for your support!
