The slight dip in a graduated cylinder is called a meniscus.
The best way to find a volume of anything(that doesn't dissolve or get damage by water) is by simply filling a graduated cylinder with water(amount doesnt matter)then dipping the object in water and calculating the difference. (FOR EXAMPLE: I can fill a graduated cylinder up to 100 ml. Then i will dip the expo marker in it. And let's say for example that it rises by 50 ml. Then the volume is 50 milliliters.)
The dip of a unit represents the angle at which the bed inclines from the horizontal. In dip-slip faults, the fault blocks move up and down, parallel to the dip of the fault plane.
well it depends on the kind of dip
no, it's a myth
it puts cold water in and pushes hot water to the top
meniscus
The dip in a graduated cylinder is called the meniscus. It is caused by surface tension and can be either concave or convex, depending on the liquid. When measuring volume, it is important to read the measurement at the bottom of the meniscus for accuracy.

The most accurate way to read a graduated cylinder is to place it on a flat surface. Bend down so you are eye level with the Meniscus Line, the line that is formed by the border between the unfilled portion of the cylinder and the top of the liquid. The very lowest part of this line is where you read the measurement. The markings are in whole numbers, 1, 2, 3, etc., with 10 lines between each number.

Is that when you are driving down the road and a road sign says "DIP"- that means a slight drop in the road. Or is that a sign on the dash "DIPLIGHTS"- that means low beam headlights.
Because of surface tension, liquids dip inwards at the top. So in a graduated cylinder the dip has an effect on the measurement that the liquid is reaching. In a pipette, however, the tube which the liquid's in is much thinner, therefore the dip at the top is much less noticeable and has a considerably smaller difference. This, for obvious reason, makes it more accurate.Answers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comAnswers.comNetcraft Site ReportCorrection:Generally for measurements, thin long columns are more accurate than relatively wider columns. Thus the meniscus of a sucked liquid is more noticeable in a pipette than in a graduated cylinder. This will aid good visibility when reading off the height of the liquid in the column. Thus the pipette is more accurate that the graduated cylinder.Faith Olatokunbo, Fisk University.

All liquids have a surface tension. This tension creates a meniscus or curve on the surface, most noticeable in small diameter tubes or cylinders. The meniscus of water curves up the sides of the cylinder, while heavy liquids like mercury curves down the cylinder. You should always measure light liquids at the bottom of the meniscus and heavy liquids at the top of the meniscus.
