Verified by Experts

The incident rays will pass undeviated through the water surface and strike the mirror parallel to its principle axis. Thereofre for the mirror, object is at `oo`. Its image `A` (in figure) will be formed at foucus which is `20cm` form the mirror, Now that the interface between water and air, `d = 10cm`.
`:. d' = (d)/(((n_(W))/(n_(a)))) = (10)/(((4//3)/(1))) = 7.5cm`
