A transparent thin film of uniform thickness and refractive index $n _{1}=1.4$ is coated on the convex spherical surface of radius $R$ at one end of a long solid glass cylinder of refractive index $n_{2}=1.5$, 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 $f _{1}$ from the film, while rays of light traversing from glass to air get focused at distance $f _{2}$ from the film. Then
