In the window of the physics laboratory, an inverted image of the neighboring school was photographed, created by a spherical glass flask with a radius of R = 60 mm filled with water. Take μ of water=4/3 Since the camera was focused on the image of the building created by the flask, the actual school building is captured only as a blur. However, you can quite accurately compare the viewing angle under which you see the window of the building from the location where the center of the lens is located with the viewing angle under which you see, from the same location, the image of the window created by the flask. In the photograph, the height of the window appears as H = 50 mm, and the height of the image of the window created by the flask as h = 6 mm. What is the distance d(in cm) from the center of the lens to the center of the image created by the flask ?
