There are four light-weight-rod samples \(A,\) \(B,\) \(C,\) \(D\) separately suspended by threads. A bar magnet is slowly brought near each sample and the following observations are noted: 
i. \(A\) is feebly repelled.
ii. \(B\) is feebly attracted.
iii. \(C\) is strongly attracted.
iv. \(D\) remains unaffected.
Which one of the following is true?
 
1. \(C\) is of a diamagnetic material.
2. \(D\) is of a ferromagnetic material.
3. \(A\) is of a non-magnetic material.
4. \(B\) is of a paramagnetic material.
