Law of conservation of energy state that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed it can only be converted into one form to another form.
Now, let us consider a pendulum in which to and fro motion will take place. When pendulum bob moves from its rest position (mean position) to another extreme position its kinetic energy will be converted into potential energy when it is raised at some height 'h'. Now when it come back to its mean position, then its potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy and this phenomenon will take place again and again.
The bob will eventually come to rest due to the frictional resistance offered by air on the surface of bob and pendulum loses its kinetic energy to overcome this friction and finally comes to rest.
The law of conservation of energy is not violated because the kinetic energy loss by pendulum to overcome the friction is gained by surrounding, So total energy of system will remain conserved.
