Which equation is most valid for finding power dissipation in a induced magnetic pendulum system?

Considering a set up where a conducting pendulum oscillates between two permanent magnets, I want to somehow calculate the power dissipated by the magnetic braking force the magnets provide, in order ...

Magnet A exerts an magnetic force $F_1$ on magnet B, B exerts a Reactive force $R_1$ on A, B exerts an magnetic force $F_2$ on A, is $R_1=F_2$?

Let's suppose there are 2 magnets, A and B, that are within the magnetic field of each other. Then A will exert a magnetic force on B (let's name it F1), and, due to the 3rd law of Newton, every ...

Can the following set up be used to propel something upwards?

Let A and B be solenoids with the same pole facing each other. Then will their repulsion cause the set up to jump upwards? Please correct me if I am wrong: Solenoid A exerts a downward force on ...

In classical electrodynamics, what are the equations of motion for a pair of point charges?

I know the equations for a (point) charge in a background electromagnetic field, and for the electromagnetic field due to a fixed current. What are the general equations, for the evolution of an ...
