$A$ 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:
$(A)$ $|f_1|=3R$
$(B)$ $|f_1|=2.8R$
$(C)$ $|f_2|=2R$
