Explaining Cohesion and Adhesion

1.How can we observe cohesion and adhesion of water?

  A simple way you can observe the adhesion of water is by making a simple glass maybe 6in * 6in and cut a sheet of wax paper that goes half way, once you do this pour drops of water down the glass. Observe the speed of the drops, the faster it goes the less adhesive it is to the material and the slower it goes the more adhesive it is to the material.
