Answer:

The madal is a folk musical instrument of Nepal . The madal is used mainly for rhythm-keeping in Nepalese folk music. It is very popular and widely used as hand drum in Nepal. The Madal consists of a cylindrical body with a slight bulge at its center and heads at both ends, one head larger than the other. It is usually played horizontally in a seated position, with both heads played simultaneously.

Madal is a national instrument, of Nepal. This typical Nepalese percussion instrument is the backbone of most Nepali folk music. The well-known Nepali musician Ranjit Gazmer introduced this instrument to Bollywood music, when he started working under Rahul Dev Burman, and has used it in numerous Bollywood songs such as "Hum dono do premi duniya chhod chale" and "Kanchi re kanchi re". There is also a madal drum among certain Adivasi groups.

The ancient name of madal was mardal (मर्दल in Nepali).

Typically, a wooden log is carved so as to form a hollow cavity, called ghar (घर). The heads of the drum are made of double-layered goat skins, and a black paste made of flour, iron filings, and egg is burned in to a circular area in the center of each head. This circle adds weight to the head and significantly alters the sound of the drum, giving it a bell-like quality. The heads are fixed to the body of the drum by leather strips running the length of the body, and an additional loose strip of leather which can be looped behind the performer's knees while playing [2]

The larger and smaller heads are often referred to as male and female respectively.

Spontaneous recovery definition psychology
lesya [120]
Spontaneous recovery means the reappearance of a previous extinguished response. For instance, Jon is scared of dogs because he thinks they look angry. After a long treatment, he finally gets used to play with the dogs. He is no longer afraid of dogs. However, one day he saw a dog walking towards him, he suddenly started to fear again. His fear was extinguished after the treatment, but he suddenly recovered that response again. This is more of an one time event.

Intuitive thought

Explanation:

Intuitive thought is the sub-stage of Piaget's cognitive development theory. It is the sub-stage of the preoperational stage from age 2 to 7 years but the intuitive thought stage from 4 to 7 years. In intuitive thought sub-stage children are unaware of the knowledge they acquire. In this stage, children show the style of thinking that is called cent-ration. In this style of thinking children focus on only one side of a personal view. De-ceneration is the part of the conservation in this stage. In this stage children asking so many irrelevant questions. Through this, this process children built up their knowledge about the objects.
