Explain the refraction by two transparent spherically curved surfaces.

$A$ spherical surface of radius of curvature $R$ separates air (refractive index $n_1 = 1.0$) from glass (refractive index $n_2 = 1.5$). The center of curvature is inside the glass. $A$ point object placed at $P$ forms a real image at $Q$. The line $PQ$ intersects the surface at $O$ and $PO = OQ$. The distance $PO$ is:

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

The figure shows a transparent sphere of radius $R$ and refractive index $\mu$. An object $O$ is placed at a distance $x$ from the pole of the first surface so that a real image is formed at the pole of the exactly opposite surface. If an object is placed at a distance $R$ from the pole of the first surface,then the real image is formed at a distance $R$ from the pole of the second surface. The refractive index $\mu$ of the sphere is given by

In the figure shown here,a point object $O$ is placed in air. $A$ spherical boundary separates various media with a radius of curvature $2.0 \, m$. $AB$ is the principal axis. The refractive index above $AB$ is $1.6$ and below $AB$ is $2.0$. The separation between the images formed due to refraction at the spherical surface is
