There is an swinging metal pendulum. I put one polar of bar magnet below the equilibrium. What will be the effect of the intensity of the magnet to the time taken for the pendulum to stop? Please explain the theory specifically since I am quite confused. Thank you very much.

How do you understand it so far on your own?
