Problem

A solid glass sphere of radius rr and refractive index 1.51.5 is silvered over one hemisphere. A small object is located on the axis of the sphere at a distance 2r2r to the left of the vertex of the unsilvered hemisphere. Find the position of the final image after all refractions and reflections have taken place.
