Contribution

It provides a detailed rebuttal to Mansuripur's comment, clarifying the original interpretation and demonstrating the robustness of the initial conclusions.

Findings

Mansuripur's concerns are incomplete or incorrect.

The original interpretation of the push force remains valid.

Further clarification supports the initial experimental results.

Abstract

In a recent comment [1], Masud Mansuripur presented some concerns with theoretical and experimental interpretations of She's paper [2], and concluded that She's conclusion is incorrect. We agree that, some of the She's work required further interpretation in detail. However,after careful investigation, we found that points raised in Mansuripur's comment are incomplete or incorrect,as explained below.
