(D) In the context of spherical mirrors,the magnification $m$ is defined as the ratio of the height of the image $(h')$ to the height of the object $(h)$,i.e.,$m = h'/h$.For real images,the image is formed below the principal axis,making the height of the image $(h')$ negative,while the object height $(h)$ is taken as positive.Therefore,a negative magnification $(m Since all real images formed by spherical mirrors are inverted,the correct nature of the image is inverted.

If the magnification $m$ of an image formed by a spherical mirror is negative,what is the nature of the image?
