X rays are are able to penetrate less dense materials easily, such as muscle and skin tissue in medical situations or plastics and wood in other applications.
As the material becomes more dense, the x rays penetrate less easily.
Materials such as steel or bone in a medical setting are more dense along with such materials as lead and tungsten in engineering situations.
X-rays are a radiation which is above communications radio waves and below gamma rays. It is a highly energetic radio wave which is why it is able to pass through some materials. It is not energetic enough to pass through highly dense materials such as lead.
Both X-rays and infrared waves can penetrate certain materials. X-rays can pass through soft tissues in the body, while infrared waves can pass through glass.

X-rays cannot see through dense materials like lead or dense metals.
X-rays can pass through metal due to their high energy and short wavelength, allowing them to penetrate materials that visible light cannot. This makes X-rays useful for imaging structures inside metal objects, such as during medical procedures or security screenings.
X-rays can pass through the human body and are commonly used in medical imaging to visualize the internal structures of the body. X-rays are able to penetrate soft tissues, but not as well through denser materials like bones, which creates contrast in the images.
Yes, but x-rays can't be focused by lenses, they just pass through the lens. They can only be focused by glancing angle nested cylinder mirrors. X-rays pass through most things.

radio and tv beams can pass through concrete as x-rays pass through the body
X-rays have high energy and can penetrate aluminum foil easily due to its low atomic number. As X-rays pass through aluminum foil, they will interact with the atoms and may be absorbed or scattered. Overall, the structure of aluminum foil will remain largely unchanged as X-rays pass through it.
X-rays cannot pass through lead, and lead is what is used in X-ray shielding.
Yes, beryllium is transparent to x-rays; windows of x-rays tubes are made from a thin foil of beryllium.
