    E)  40 cm

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    From lens formula \[\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{u}\] Giveh, \[v=\frac{u}{2},\]\[f=20\,cm\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{1}{20}=\frac{1}{u\text{/}2}-\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{u}\] \[\Rightarrow \]                  \[u=20\,cm\]
