When a mechanic wants to empty the gasoline tank of a car he fills a plastic tube with gasoline dips one end of the tube into the gasoline in the tank and puts the others why does this technique work?
t will work if only half the tube is filled so a column of air will be trapped between both ends. As the gasoline in the tube flows out of the tube, it pulls the column of air between gasoline and the other end inserted into the tank creating a suction effect. The empty barrel has to be lower because as gasoline inside the tank is drawn into the tube, gravity has to take over to make the gasoline flow downward.
How does a mechanic empty a gasoline tank of a car?

When a mechanic wants to empty the gasoline tank of a car he fills a plastic tube with gasoline dips one end of the tube into the gasoline tank. Why does this technique work?
OK well first of all the tube has to be lower than the tank for this to work but anyway gravity pulls out the gasoline from the tube into a bucket or can or whatever, and this creates a vacuum which needs to be filled with something, because the other end is submerged in gasoline that is what fills the vacuum, this is a continuous effect until there is nothing with an appropriate mass to fill the void (e.g air)
When a mechanic wants to empty the gasoline tank of a car he fills a plastic tube of gasoline dips one end of the tube into the gasoline in the tank and puts another end into an empty drum placed lowe?
This is called siphoning. The gasoline-filled tube, when the end that is not in the gas tank is lowered to a point below the tank, it creates a pressure differential inside the tube. Just as liquid pours from a glass when it is tilted, so does the gasoline flow through the tube. As long as the tube in the tank is below the level of gasoline in the tank, the gasoline will continue to flow until the flow is interrupted (or until the tank is empty).

When a mechanic wants to empty the gasoline tank of a car he fills a plastic tube with gasolime and dips one end of the tube into the tank He puts the other end into an empty container which is placed?
It'll have to be at a lower level than the car's gas tank, although, in reality, he would have to remove the fuel tank, disconnect the neck (as modern cars come with an anti-siphon neck), and either place the fuel tank at a higher point than the receptacle, or else use a vacuum pump (with diesel fuel, it's fine to use an electric one, and that's what we do at my shop.. gasoline is much more volatile, though).
