What happens when you change gears with a manual car? Like what happens that allows the car run better and go faster?

A transmission is just a box with different sized gears. Much like a 10 speed bike, you move a lever and it meshes with different sprockets to change speeds. The low gears are designed to go slow but with high torque and as you progress through the gears, you get less torque and more speed. Once you are moving it takes less effort to increase the speed.
