Explain Why is the surface of water in a graduated cylinder curved?
it is probably called figure it out, it is curved because glass is sticky. When you measure the volume from a graduated cylinder, measure at the bottom of it. It is called the meniscus.
What is the volume of water in the graduated cylinder?
To determine the volume of water in a graduated cylinder, you need to read the measurement at the bottom of the meniscus, which is the curved surface of the water. Ensure your eye is level with the meniscus to avoid parallax error. The volume is typically measured in milliliters (mL) or liters (L) and can be read directly from the scale on the cylinder. If you provide the specific measurement shown in the graduated cylinder, I can help you interpret it.
How do I find the volume of an irregular object using a graduated cylinder?
To find the volume of an irregular object using a graduated cylinder, you can use the method of water displacement. Fill the graduated cylinder with a known volume of water, then carefully submerge the irregular object in the water. The increase in water level corresponds to the volume of the object. Subtract the initial volume from the final volume to determine the volume of the irregular object.
The curve on the surface of water is a graduated cylinder is called?
The meniscus.
How many liters of water are in a graduated cylinder?
As many as were put into it, subject to the total capacity of the cylinder.

What do you call the curved uppers surfaces of water that commonly appears when using a graduated cylinder?
This is called meniscus.
When using the measuring cylinder do you talk the measurement at the side of the cured surface or the curved surface?
I think you are talking about a graduated cylinder. When measuring liquids in a grad. cylinder you should read at the bottom of the miniscus ( the curved surface of the water or other liquid).
What is the volume of water in the graduated cylinder?
To determine the volume of water in a graduated cylinder, you need to read the measurement at the bottom of the meniscus, which is the curved surface of the water.

If you provide the specific measurement shown in the graduated cylinder, I can help you interpret it.
Are correct procedures for reading the volume of water in the graduated cylinder?
Water in a glass graduated cylinder adheres to the sides of the cylinder, forming a meniscus which is an upward curve. When reading volume in a cylinder, look at the meniscus at eye level. Read the volume at the bottom of the curve.
On a hot day a student observes water drops on the outside of a bottle of cold water. Explain this observation in terms of the concept of thermal energy.?
Use the water displacement method. You need a graduated cylinder and some water. Fill the graduated cylinder with enough water so that when you place the rock in the graduated cylinder it will cover the rock. Read the meniscus (the slightly curved line of the water) at eye level. Record your measurement of the water in the graduated cylinder (in mL). Place the rock in the graduated cylinder and record your new measurement of the water line, again at eye level. Subtract the original measurement from the new one to get the volume of the rock.
Why does water in a graduated cylinder form a miniscus?
Water in a graduated cylinder forms a meniscus due to the capillary action, which is the result of the water molecules being attracted to the walls of the cylinder. This causes the water's surface to curve slightly upward or downward at the edges, creating the meniscus shape.
Why does a concave meniscus form when water is in a graduated cylinder?
A concave meniscus forms in a graduated cylinder with water due to adhesive forces between the water molecules and the walls of the cylinder. This causes the water to cling to the walls, resulting in a concave shape.
What will the water level be when all four marbles are in the graduated cylinder?
Graduated Cylinder - Marbles
What is a graduated cylinder for in science?
A graduated cylinder is used to measure the volume, or capacity of water. Or to just measure Water.
How would you measure 20 milliliters using a graduated cylinder?
To measure 20 milliliters using a graduated cylinder, pour liquid into the cylinder until the meniscus (the curved surface) lines up with the 20 ml mark on the graduated scale. Make sure to read the measurement at eye level for accuracy.
