Why can you see a clear image of a tree in a lake on a calm day but not on a windy day?
The reason you can see a clear image of a tree in a lake on a calm day but not on a windy day is that regular reflection requires a smooth surface so that when the light waves bounce off the surface and most of them reflect into your eye which will then be interpeted as sight by the mind but on a windy day the water is not calm and the surface is rough causing light waves to bounce off in many different directions and most of these light waves don't bounce back to human eye so they can be interpted.

When does a surface reflect lights most clearly?
A surface will reflect light most clearly when that surface is completely smooth. Example of clear reflection: Look at the reflection on a lake when there is no wind or anything causing ripples or waves. The reflection is clear and objects reflected can be seen clearly. Example of distorted (unclear) reflection: Look at the same lake on a very windy day when there are many waves and other ripples on the waters surface. The reflections coming off the waters surface are hard or imposable to see due to the distortion of the reflection.
