Obtain lens makers formula using the expression
`(mu_1)/u + (mu_2)/v = (mu_2-mu_1)/R`
Here the ray of light propagating from a rare r medium of rerfracitve index `(mu_1)` to a dneser medium of refractive indes`(mu_2)` is incident on the convex side of spherical refracting surface of radius of curvature R.
