This is called a meniscus, from the greek work for 'crescent'. You should meaure from the bottom of it when it is concave (like a smile) or the top when it is convex (like a frown).

Because is the simplest item and also is not expensive.
A graduated cylinder is the best choice for measuring the volume of water in a test tube.
If you are using metric, which most sciences do, you would use milliliters (mL). If you're using imperial units, which are uncommon in science, you would use fluid ounces (fl. oz.)
You should have the surface of the liquid at eye level, and you should read the level at the bottom of the meniscus. The meniscus is the slightly curved line of the surface.
Any class A cylinder is adequate.

A Volumetric Pipette is the most accurate and used for titration calculations, if you include that as a type of pipette then it is FAR more accurate than a graduated cylinder. A beaker is very inaccurate so don't even go there.
Multiplying the height, depth and width of the cube together (which in a true cube will be identical to the length of one side cubed) will give you the volume of that cube. The units will be whatever units the lengths were in, cubed. For example, a cube which has sides each of length 2 metres is worked out as: 2m x 2m x 2m = 8m3 Which is the same as: 23 = 8m3
percolation rate (mL/min) = amount of water (mL)/percolation time (min) For example, suppose that for a certain sample, it took 20 minutes for 200 mL to percolate. So, rate of percolation =200 ml/20 min=10 ml/min. Weight of soil = 50g Initial volume of water in the measuring cylinder = U mL Final volume of water in the measuring cylinder = V mL Volume of water absorbed by the soil = (U Weight of water absorbed by the soil = (U (1 mL of water has weight equal to 1 g) percentage of water absorbed=(U-V)*100/50
When you look at a graduated cylinder anywhere above eye level with the surface of the liquid, it distorts the view and the number (tick mark) you identify as the volume will not be accurate.
The layer of oil placed in the measuring cylinder when measuring the amount of water taken up by a plant prevents water evaporation. This allows for a more accurate measurement of transpiration.

Measuring Cylinder.
The volume of the stone is measured by displacement. Water is put into the measuring cylinder to a noted mark. The stone is placed in the cylinder and the water level will rise. The difference between the two levels is the volume in ml of the stone.

First put water in measuring cylinder and note the volume of water. Next, put the pebble in it.
Grease prevents water contact with the glass cylinder.
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).
