4 Fun Facts Animated by Teachers

Last week, the TED-Ed Animation Team facilitated animation workshops with TED-Ed Innovative Educators. We introduced them to basic stop-motion tricks and techniques in hopes that they would begin to incorporate animation into their classroom projects - and based on the results, I think they are up to the challenge!

Earlier this fall, we sourced some fun facts from the educators themselves, and then tasked them with visualizing that very information. We used tablets with #istopmotion to shoot the animation, and basic household objects and school supplies as props and materials. We dare say that you, too, can do this from home!

1. When an object’s mass doubles, its kinetic energy also doubles, but when an object’s SPEED doubles, its kinetic energy quadruples.

2. If a male sperm was the size of a human being, it would swim the 100 metre freestyle in half of the world record time.

3. Approximately one word is added to the English language every two hours.

4. If you condensed the Earth’s history into 24 hours, humans wouldn’t exist until 11:58pm.

Why do we call dollars BUCKS?

The name “buck” came from a time (circa 1890-1920) where people would trade deer skins as a type of money in america. Male deer are called bucks and so the term “buck” became synonymous with money. through the years, dollars and bucks or buck skins were used interchangeably.

This liquid is boiling and freezing simultaneously because it’s reaching its ‘triple point,’ which is the temperature and pressure at which three phases of a substance (gas, liquid, and solid) co-exist in equilibrium. Source

We’ve glitched out the universe.  The physics engine does not have the processing power to deal with this shit.

The ‘liquid’ above is Cyclohexane.

Its triple point is 6.33 °C (270.48K) at a pressure of 5.388kPA (1 atmosphere = 101.325 kPA)

Happy Mole Day!

Not every number is cool enough to have its own nickname, let alone two. Way to go 6.02 x 10^23 (aka Avogadro’s number aka the mole)!

Beach of the Cathedrals, Ribadeo, Spain.

The place's more characteristic features are its natural arches and caves, which can be seen only in low tide. During high tide, the beach appears quite small, but is still suitable to go for a swim. High tide is an interesting time to visit the place and wander over the top of the cliffs, from West to East, heading to the Esteiro Beach. During low tide you can appreciate the size of its magnificent cliffs and the picturesque sea caves, which go from small cracks on the rock to big caves whose roofs collapse due to the erosion of the waves.

The Square Melons of Japan.

The square-shaped fruits are grown in boxes, which force the watermelon’s shape. But unfortunately, don’t ever try to eat these as they are inedible. Why? The watermelons are harvested before they are ripe.
