Solution
| Diamagnetic Substance | Ferromagnetic Substance | ||
| 1 | Weakly repelled by a magnet | 1 | Strongly attracted by a magnet |
| 2 | When kept in a non-uniform magnetic field, it shows moderate tendency to move from stronger to the weaker part of the field. | 2 | When kept in a non-uniform magnetic field, it shows strong tendency to move from weaker to the stronger part of the field. |
