The metronome clicks at the tempo of the score. The default tempo (if you have not entered an explicit tempo) is 120 bpm. If you want the score to play (and thus, the metronome to click) at a faster or slower tempo, add a tempo marking from the Tempo palette.
It has available the most commonly used of the traditional Italian tempo words: Grave through Prestissimo.
It has explicit metronome markings: e.g., [half note] = 80 or [dotted eighth note] = 80. You can change the numeric value by double-clicking it and simply changing the text.
In addition, it has metric modulation indications (e.g., [dotted quarter note] = [quarter note]), tempo changes (accel. or rit.), and markings for Swing and Straight.
See the MuseScore 4 Handbook at https://musescore.org/en/handbook/4/tempo-markings for more information.
N.B. I recommend this to every new (or "new-ish" :-) user I communicate with. Take an hour or two and simply read the entire Handbook (https://musescore.org/en/handbook/4). Don't try to memorize it! Just skim through it and familiarize yourself with the contents! But read it all!!! Then you'll have an idea where to find things when issues come up in the future. "Didn't I see something about that in the Handbook?"
Welcome aboard and best of luck!!!
