Answer:
Radio waves have a wavelength between and
While,
X rays have a wavelength between 1m and 10km.
=> It is one of the condition of diffraction that the obstacle (coming in the way) must be comparable with the size of the wavelength.
=> This shows, that radio waves have a wavelength which is comparable with the size of buildings and can really easily diffract through it
=> While, X-rays are big enough to diffract through the wall.
So, if an X-ray technician stands behind a wall during the use of her machine, she will remain safe.
