$A$ plano-convex lens $(\mu = 1.5)$ has a radius of curvature of $10 \; cm$. It is silvered on its plane surface. Find the focal length after silvering. (in $; cm$)

$A$ planoconvex lens becomes an optical system of $28 \, cm$ focal length when its plane surface is silvered and illuminated from left to right as shown in Fig $-A$. If the same lens is instead silvered on the curved surface and illuminated from the other side as in Fig. $-B$, it acts like an optical system of focal length $10 \, cm$. The refractive index of the material of the lens is
