MCQ

Comparing real and virtual images, we may say that:

  • A
    Real images can not be obtained on a screen and virtual images can be.
  • B
    Virtual images can not be obtained on a screen and real images can be.
  • C
    Both real and virtual images can be obtained on a screen.
  • D
    Neither real nor virtual images can be obtained on a screen.

Answer

  1. Virtual images can not be obtained on a screen and real images can be.

Explanation:

Real images can be obtained on a screen. On-screen rays meet in real.

Virtual images can not be obtained on a screen. Because there is no meaning of screen for the virtual image.
