Two identical glass rods $S_1$ and $S_2$ (refractive index $= 1.5$) have one convex end of radius of curvature $10 \ cm$. They are placed with the curved surfaces at a distance $d$ as shown in the figure,with their axes (shown by the dashed line) aligned. When a point source of light $P$ is placed inside rod $S_1$ on its axis at a distance of $50 \ cm$ from the curved face,the light rays emanating from it are found to be parallel to the axis inside $S_2$. The distance $d$ is (in $cm$)
