The object should be placed 20/cm from the lens so as to form its real image on the screen
<h3>Mirror equation</h3>
The mirror equation is given according to the expression below;
1/f = 1/u + 1/v
where
f is the focal length
u is the object distance
v is the image distance
Given the following parameters
f = 5cm
v = 20cm
Required
object distance u
Substitute
1/5 = 1/u +1/20
1/u = 1/5-1/20
1/u = 3/20
u = 20/3 cm
Hence the object should be placed 20/cm from the lens so as to form its real image on the screen
