Assertion : When there is a thin layer of water between two glass plates , there is a strong attraction between them . Reason : The pressure between the plate becomes less than atmospheric pressure because pressure inside a bubble or drop is greater than outside pressure.

Two thin glass plates are placed parallel to each other such that distance between them is very small. Each glass plate reflects 25% of incident energy and transmits remaining 75% Light beam is incident on this system. Consider the interference of two light beams obtained after one reflection from each glass plate. Calculate ratio of the maximum to minimum intensity.

If two glass plates have water between them and are separated by very small distance (see figure). It is very difficult to pull them apart. It is because the water in between forms cylindrical surface on the side that gives rise ot lower pressure in the water in comparison to atmosphere. If the radius of the cylindrical surface is R and surface tension of water is T then the pressure in water between the plates is lowr by:
