A diamagnetic substance is brought near a strong magnet, then it is (a) attracted by a magnet (b) repelled by a magnet (c) repelled by north pole and attracted by south pole (d) attracted by north pole and repelled by south pole

Answer: (b). A diamagnetic substance is magnetized opposite to the magnet's field, so it is pushed towards the weaker field. This happens for both poles. So the answer is (b) repelled by a magnet.
