Problem

A transparent thin film of uniform thickness and refractive index n1=1.4n_1=1.4 is coated on the convex spherical surface of radius RR at one end of a long solid glass cylinder of refractive index n2=1.5n_2=1.5, as shown in the figure. Rays of light parallel to the axis of the cylinder traversing through the film from air to glass get focused at distance f1f_1 from the film, while rays of light traversing from glass to air get focused at distance f2f_2 from the film. Then
