Fluid around the meniscus can indicate inflammation or injury to the knee joint. It could be due to conditions like a meniscus tear, Arthritis, or bursitis. It is important to consult a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

What is a curved surface on a liquid called?

A meniscus, but whether it has a positive curve or a negative one depends on whether it wets the glass.


When reading the volume of fluid in a graduated cylinder the eye should be?

When reading the volume of fluid in a graduated cylinder, the eye should be at the same level as the meniscus (the curve at the surface of the liquid). This helps to avoid parallax error and ensures an accurate reading of the volume.


How is a meniscus used in measuring?

As the diameter of the container decreases, the meniscus becomes more pronounced. The meniscus may be convex (curving upward) or concave (curving downward). Most of the time you will find that the meniscus is concave. The most notable exception is the meniscus that forms from mercury. When taking measurement readings it is important that the reading is done properly. The following rules must be adhered to: I. Read the meniscus at eye level. Do not read the meniscus from above or below eye level. Significant measurement errors may occur II. Read the bottom of a concave meniscus and the top of a convex meniscus.


What is a saline meniscus test?

A saline meniscus test is a diagnostic procedure used to assess the integrity of the meniscus in the knee joint. It involves injecting saline solution into the knee joint to create a meniscus-like bulge. By evaluating the stability and response of this saline meniscus, healthcare providers can gather information about the condition of the knee's meniscus.


When measuring you do the measurement from the bottom of the meniscus?

You should always measure at the lowest part of the meniscus. The meniscus is a slight curvature at the top of a liquid in a container.

Would a graduated cylinder be read at the middle of a meniscus?

The answer depends on the liquid, or more specifically, how the surface tension in the liquid affects the meniscus. It should be the top of the meniscus for liquids such as mercury but the bottom for liquids such as water or alcohol.

What do you read in a graduated cylinder to identfy the exact amount of liquid in it?

You *don't* read the line where the fluid meets the glass. You look past it, to the middle of the downward curve in the fluid, the "meniscus" and read from that.
