What is the liquid curve in a graduated cylinder called?
The liquid curve is called a meniscus.
How many curve surfaces are there on a cylinder?
A cylinder has one closed "cylindrical" (circular) surface and two circles at each end. ======================
What is a curved geometric solid lateral surface called?
curve surface area
How can you find the volume of a liquid?
First you put the liquid in the graduated cylinder.Then you read the volume at the bottom of the meniscus.The meniscus is the slight curve at the edges of the surface where the liquid touches the container.
What has curve and two circles?
A cylinder
What is the curve of the top surface where the water is in a graduated cylinder called?
that would be the meniscus
What is the name of the curve on the graduated cylinder?
The curve on a graduated cylinder is called a meniscus. It occurs due to surface tension between the liquid and the container, causing the liquid to curve at the edges. When measuring volume in a graduated cylinder, the bottom of the meniscus should be used for accurate readings.
The curve of the top surface of water in a graduated cylinder is called what?
"Still That Girl" by: Britt Nicole
The curve in the top surface of water in a graduated cylinder is called?

What is the liquid curve in a graduated cylinder called?
The liquid curve is called a meniscus.
What is the curve of the top surface of water in a graduated a graduated cylinder called?
Adhesion is responsible for the surface of the water in a graduated cylinder that is slightly curved at the sides.
What is the curve at the top of a liquid graduated cylinder called?
menniscus
What is the curve of the top of water in a graduated cylinder called?

What is the curve of the top surface of water in a graduated cylindar called?
It's called a meniscus
What is the the bottom of a curved line in a graduated cylinder?
The "bottom of a curved line" made by the liquid in a graduated cylinder could be called the "measuring line" or "reference line" in the application of that piece of labratory equipment. The curved surface of the liquid itself is called the meniscus, and we look to the bottom of the meniscus to make our reading as to the volume of the liquid in the graduated cylinder. The liquid in the cylinder "grabs" the sides of the cylinder and "pulls itself up" just a bit, and that creates the curve in the surface of the liquid. And that curve, the meniscus (which is from the Greek word for crescent), leaves us with a problem: where do we "read" the volume marked off by the graduations along the side of the cylinder? And the answer is, "At the bottom of the meniscus."
Are correct procedures for reading the volume of water in the graduated cylinder?
To read the volume of water in a graduated cylinder, make sure your eye is level with the meniscus (the curved surface of the water). Read the volume at the bottom of the meniscus to get an accurate measurement. Ensure the graduated cylinder is on a flat surface to prevent parallax errors.
When using a graduated cylinder you measure the level of the water from the bottom point of the curve what is it called?
a meniscus
