as a magnet bar is falling in a copper pipe, it will reach terminal velocity due to the lenz's law. my experiment is changing on the mass of the magnet bar but not changing the magnetic field. what will happen in this case?

Am unsure what your experiment is testing...this sounds like homework/project work.
 
im mainly testing on changing the mass of the bar magnet... and finding any changes on the time taken to travel
