$A$ curved surface of radius $R$ separates two media of refractive indices $\mu_1$ and $\mu_2$ as shown in figures $A$ and $B$. Choose the correct statement$(s)$ related to the real image formed by the object $O$ placed at a distance $x$,as shown in figure $A$.

  • A
    Real image is always formed irrespective of the position of object if $\mu_2 > \mu_1$.
  • B
    Real image is formed only when $x > R$.
  • C
    Real image is formed due to the convex nature of the interface irrespective of $\mu_1$ and $\mu_2$.
  • D
    None of these.
