Studies have shown that people in cohesive groups have reported more satisfaction than members of a noncohesive group. [39] [40] [41] This is the case across many settings, including industrial, athletic, and educational settings. Members in cohesive groups also are more optimistic and suffer less from social problems than those in non-cohesive ...
Among the forces that govern drop formation: cohesion, surface tension, Van der Waals force, Plateau–Rayleigh instability. Water, for example, is strongly cohesive as each molecule may make four hydrogen bonds to other water molecules in a tetrahedral configuration. This results in a relatively strong Coulomb force between molecules. In ...
There are two primary mechanisms in play. One is an inward force on the surface molecules causing the liquid to contract. [2] [3] Second is a tangential force parallel to the surface of the liquid. [3] This tangential force is generally referred to as the surface tension. The net effect is the liquid behaves as if its surface were covered with ...
The cohesive forces between the particles tend to resist their becoming airborne, and the motion of wind across the surface is less likely to disturb a low-lying dust particle than a larger sand grain that protrudes higher into the wind. Mechanical agitation such as vehicle traffic, digging or passing herds of animals is more effective than a ...
Van der Waals forces are often among the weakest chemical forces. For example, the pairwise attractive van der Waals interaction energy between H atoms in different H 2 molecules equals 0.06 kJ/mol (0.6 meV) and the pairwise attractive interaction energy between O atoms in different O 2 molecules equals 0.44 kJ/mol (4.6 meV). [9]
The cohesive forces that bind the molecules together are van der Waals forces, dipole–dipole interactions, quadrupole interactions, π–π interactions, hydrogen bonding, halogen bonding, London dispersion forces, and in some molecular solids, coulombic interactions.

The ascent of sap in the xylem tissue of plants is the upward movement of water and minerals from the root to the aerial parts of the plant. The conducting cells in xylem are typically non-living and include, in various groups of plants, vessel members and tracheids.
