Can a real image be seen if you place a screen where the image is focused?
Yes. That's a good quick way to determine whether or not a real image exists. You can also use a piece of thin tissue paper, kleenex, or toilet paper, and see the image from the other side. Put a piece of photosensitive material there at the real image, and you get a permanent photo.
Why can't you see yourself in a piece of paper?
Since it does not reflect light. You can only see yourself in a mirror because it reflects light back into your eye, paper does not do this therefore you cant see yourself the reason is that the light rays are reflected in many directions because of the uneven surface.
Why cant you see your image reflected in a sheet of paper?
A sheet of paper simply isn't shiny or smooth enough. It may seem quite smooth, but actually the particles are quite rougher than the particles of a mirror, for example. Obviously, it isn't a very shiny material.
How can you use a screen to determine whether an image is real or virtual?
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.
Does a plane mirror always form the image of an object exactly on the plane reflecting surface?
A plane mirror doesn't 'really' form an image at all. The image is 'virtual', not 'real'. You see what appears to be an image. It's located at the same distance behind the reflecting surface as the actual object is in front of it. If a real image exists, you can always put a piece of frosted glass, photo-film, or tissue paper where the image is, and capture it. You can't do that with a plane mirror.
Why can't you see an image on a piece of paper?
One possibility is that it was put on the paper with lemon juice. You would have to put the paper near a flame (not to the point of igniting it) in order to bring out the image.

Why can't we see the light from the sun through a telescope?
You would certainly be able to see the light from the sun through a telescope, and that's putting it mildly !But it would be foolish and dangerous to do it.Have you ever roasted an ant, or ignited a piece of paper, by focusing a tiny image of the sun with amagnifying glass ? What happened to the ant or the paper is exactly what would happen to the insideof your eye if you focused the image of the sun on it.
What is the reason for the microscope?
