$A$ spherical surface of radius of curvature $R$ separates air (refractive index $1.0$) from glass (refractive index $1.5$). The centre of curvature is in the glass. $A$ point object $P$ placed in air is found to have a real image $Q$ in the glass. The line $PQ$ cuts the surface at a point $O$,and $PO = OQ$. The distance $PO$ is equal to (in $R$)
