A spherical surface of radius of curvature R separates air (refractive index 1.0) from glass (refractive index 1.5). The centre of curvature is in the glass. A point object P placed in air is found to have a real image Q in the glass. The line PQ cuts the surface at a point O, and `PO=OQ`. The distance `PO`

The correct Answer is:
A

`mu_(2)/v-mu_(1)/u=(mu_(2)-mu_(1))/R,1.5/(PO) + 1/(PO)=(1.5-1)/R`
