A designer tests an insert for a levitating display. The insert is prevented from turning. Its lower face is held above the south pole of a fixed permanent magnet. The insert moves upwards, away from the fixed magnet.
What does this movement show about the insert?
It is an induced magnet, because the fixed magnet's field has made its lower face a south pole
It is an induced magnet, because it is only pushed away while it is near the fixed magnet
It is a permanent magnet, because its lower face is a south pole and like poles repel
It is a permanent magnet, because its lower face is a north pole and unlike poles repel
