    voted: The Induced magnetic field would act to repulse the magnet on both its approch and exit, thereby conserving energy

    engineer is Terminator

    This is a very famous law in electromagnetic theory, called the Lenz's law, by virtue of which the induced magnetic field always opposed the source inducing the change.So, it works on action reaction principle and hence, energy is conserved.
