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.
  • 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

Correct option: B.
Virtual images can not be obtained on a screen and real images can be.

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.
