Ques) Why we cannot see our face in the newspaper and in the wall ?
In summary, newspapers and walls use printing and surface materials that do not allow for the clear reflection of our faces. While some individuals may have exceptional visual abilities to see their face in these mediums, for the majority of people, it is not possible. Mirrors, on the other hand, have a smooth and reflective surface that allows for clear images. Technology could potentially be developed to allow for this, but it would require significant advancements.

Well, to "see" your face on something, you need light to bounce of the surface in a orderly fashion. Therefore in highly polished surfaces like mirrors the light gets bounced off in one direction. whereas in something like the wall, the surface is very rough although it might seem "smooth" to touch therefore the light gets scattered and no reflection is seen!

FAQ: Why Can't We See Our Face in Newspapers & Walls?
Why can't we see our face in newspapers?
Newspapers use a printing process called lithography, which involves transferring ink from a printing plate onto paper. This process does not allow for the printing of detailed images, such as photographs of faces. Instead, newspapers use illustrations or low-resolution images.
Why can't we see our face in walls?
Walls are generally made of materials such as concrete, brick, or drywall, which have a rough and porous surface. This texture makes it difficult for light to reflect off the surface in a way that would create a clear image. Additionally, walls are usually not smooth enough to reflect light in a focused way, which is necessary for seeing our own face.
Can some people see their face in newspapers and walls?
There may be some rare cases where individuals with exceptional visual abilities may be able to see their own face in newspapers and walls, but for the majority of people, it is not possible due to the limitations mentioned above.
Why can we see our face in mirrors but not in newspapers or walls?
Mirrors have a smooth and reflective surface, which allows light to bounce off and create a clear image. The surface of a mirror is also usually coated with a thin layer of metal or silver, which further enhances its reflective properties.
Can technology be developed to allow us to see our face in newspapers and walls?
It is possible for technology to be developed that could allow us to see our face in newspapers and walls. However, it would require significant advancements in printing and display technology. Currently, the resolution and quality of images in newspapers and on walls are not high enough to accurately reflect our faces.
