When you project an image onto a screen, if it is real you can see the image on the screen, if it is virtual then you cant.
No, only the virtual image will be obtained.
virtual image ( not on screen, brain interpreting)
a real image is formed when the reflected or refracted beams of light meet directly; in case of a virtual image, direct meeting does not take place.a real image can be formed on a screen but not the virtual image.when we use flat-surfaced mirrors, only virtual images are formed.
A real image can be captured on a screen (eg white paper) whereas a virtual image cannot.To see an image on a screen light rays must come to a focus on the screen, but with a virtual image no actual light rays come together at the location of the image .. hence a virtual image cannot be seen on a screen.A real image is a source of light energy .. rays of light radiate from it.A virtual image is not a source of light energy.. rays of light do not radiate from it ( although it's where the brain 'thinks' the light originated.)
Real images can be obtained on the screen,whereas virtual images can't be obtained on the screen
It is called a real image. Only a real image can be projected onto a screen.
If an image can be formed on screen it is classified as real. Virtual images cannot be projected on an image.
you are contradicting yourself here. a virtual image is VIRTUAL. meaning it technically doesn't exist, (though you can manipulate the light to see it) its focus exists beyond the plane of view and therefore you can't see it. to better explain this, pictures do a whole lot more, search for concave and convex lenses and compare the refraction of an image that you get

When we are looking through a magnifying glass from a position far away from the focus , a real image is formed which is inverted.This inverted image cannot be obtained on the screen.Hence we see the image upside down. However if we look through the magnifying glass at a position between the optical centre and focus a virtual,erect and magnified image will be formed.This can be obtained on the screen.
