What is meniscus level?
When a liquid is held in a vessel, the water adheres to the side of the vessel. So when the amount of liquid held by the vessel is less than the full amount the vessel will hold, the liquid level rises where it touches the vessel. It "sticks" to the side of the vessel hard enough to be above the top of the liquid. This is called a negative meniscus. When the level of the liquid is higher than the top of the vessel (but doesn't overflow the top due to the surface tension of the liquid), then there is a positive meniscus.
What is the purpose of liquid level gauges?
Liquid level gauges are used to show the level of liquid in a container. They are most often used to view the level of liquid in tanks and boilers in an industrial setting.
How can you say that liquid maintains its level?
If you have a large container and the opening has a large cross section and the container is kept still, the liquid inside will become flat. It will be level. The liquid will remain level. If some liquid is added or removed the surface will soon become level again. That would not happen with a solid.
