The image is formed between focus F1 and optical centre O.
It is given that the focal length of the lens is 20 cm, and the object is placed at 20 cm from the optical centre, which means that the object is kept at the principal focus of the lens. Also, it is known that the divergent or concave lens forms virtual, diminished and erect images on the same side of the mirror when the object is kept in focus. Hence, the image is formed between focus F1 and optical centre O.
