When the pendulum is at it's highest point in it's path of flight, the pendulum is not moving, and has purely potential energy. When the pendulum reaches the lowest point in it's flight, that potential energy is converted into kinetic. The total amount of energy has not changed though.
Let's make up numbers to prove how this is true. Say we have a ball on the end of the pendulum that weighs 10kg. At it's max height, the ball reaches 5 meters above it's starting point. Since potential energy (PE) = mass (m) x gravity (g) x height (h), our PE = (5kg)(10m/s^2)(5m) = 250 Joules. As I mentioned earlier, total potential energy will equal the total kinetic energy (KE). When the ball reaches it's lowest point (where it's velocity is the highest), we can use our PE energy from the first equation to determine how fast the ball is moving at the bottom of the swing. KE = (1/2) x mass (m) x velocity (v) squared. Since KE also equals PE, we have 250 = (1/2)(5)(v^2) --> 100 = v^2. Therefore the veolcity equals 10 meters per second.
It goes from potential, to kinetic, to potential, to kinetic, etc...
There are several conservation laws in physics, and many of them tell an astronomer what is, and what isn't, possible. This can help explain how certain things happen, or even predict what will happen. Among the laws of conservation that are relevant in astronomy are: conservation of mass; conservation of energy; conservation of momentum; conservation of rotational momentum; conservation of charge.
conservation of mass law, no matter is ever created or destroyed (except for nuclear fusion)
This is an example of Newton's Third Law. It can also be explained - equivalently - via conservation of momentum.
According to the law of conservation of energy,energy can only converted from one form to another; it can be neither be created nor destroyed total energy before and after transformation remains same
what your talking about is terminal velocity, which is when the downward force of gravity (Fg)equals the upward force of drag (Fd). This causes the net force on the object to be zero, resulting in an acceleration of zero

Among the laws of conservation that are relevant in astronomy are: conservation of mass; conservation of energy; conservation of momentum; conservation of rotational momentum; conservation of charge.
Simply, the two fundamental laws are energy conservation and and momentum conservation.
the law of conservation of matter using your own examples? This guy is a fag--->
demonstrate, conclude, deduce, describe, indicate
Remonstrate means to plead in protest: "Please, please don't do that!" While demonstrate means to explain: "Let me show you how to do that."

Essentially , a simple pendulum is ignorant of air resistance, its more a tool to calculate gravitational acceleration, immersing it in liquid would introduce a drag force and bouyancy on the bob which alters the net force on the bob (essentially reducing the gravity)
Build a very large pendulum and set it in motion. Then observe, think and explain what you observe over the course of a day.
