Answer:

• Before, the water is calm with a regular reflection surface. So, all the light rays from your face will be reflected directly to your eyes hence viewing your face clearly.

• After throwing a stone in the pool, the water distorts or disorganises due to change in volume and molecular dislocation. So, it forms an irregular reflecting surface. Hence, all light rays from the face are reflected in different directions hence you can't see your face clearly.

Step-by-step explanation:
