The primary beam from a 250-kVp diagnostic X-ray machine in a doctor’s office is directed perpendicularly at a wall that separates the office from a public sidewalk just outside, 12 ft from the X-ray machine. The wall consists of 1.0 in. of hard brick covered by 2.67 in. of sand plaster. The machine is
