Cohesion is the correct answer.

Aleem Nasar said:   3 years ago
Cohesion is the right answer.

Vipul said:   8 years ago
Guys let me tell you that correct answer must be cohesion.
(This question is taken from A book name Objective civil engineering(By R Agor) in which the given answer is Adhesion that is wrong).

Molecules of fluid get attracted due to cohesion you writing and at last you telling answer is C. What is the answer?

Puneet said:   9 years ago
It is D .

Or the question should explain whether molecules are attracted towards a different material or towards itself.

The answer should be cohesion, not adhesion.

Mohit Masiwal said:   9 years ago
Fluids means different fluids not one fluid. Different fluids molecules attract due to adhesion. And if written attraction between fluid (note here no 's' at end ) so there having same fluid with differnt molecules and so cohesion.

Baloch said:   9 years ago
Actually, both are attractive forces.

Difference is only that adhesive force is an attraction between unlike molecules (eg molecules of water with beaker) and cohesion is between like molecules (molecules of water).

Answer should be cohesion according to the question.

Pramod kumar said:   8 years ago
