lfa simple pendulum has significant amplitude (up to a factor of $1/e$ of original) only in the period between $t = 0\ s$ to $t = \tau \ s$, then $\tau$ may be called the average life of the pendulum. When the spherical bob of the pendulum suffers a retardation ( due to viscous drag) proportional to its velocity with $b$ as the constant of proportionality, the average life time of the pendulum is (assuming damping is small) in seconds
