If a water bottle is in the same vicinity as an X-ray, will the water bottle still be safe to drink from?

Yes, the Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the length of a side of a triangle. The Pythagorean theorem states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides. This means that if the lengths of two sides of a right triangle are known, the length of the third side can be found by solving the equation a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are the known sides and c is the unknown side.

Just wanted to add that when I was in an airport in Japan, they let you take a water bottle on the flight but you have to run it through the x ray machine first. Apparently safe enough to be official procedure.

Something that WOULD be dangerous would be a substance that emits radiation (like the cobalt x-ray imaging source that was lost in Australia, or dust and particulates from an exploded RBMK reactor) being dispersed into the water.

Would X-Rays damage the bottle at all?

a. X-rays can damage you (knock molecules apart), but they’re not strong enough to cause secondary radiation (knock atoms apart).

b. If it’s strong enough the water would probably be safer. Radiation can be used to keep food fresh longer by killing microorganisms within the food. So as long as the water has been exposed only to strong x-rays (and not alpha or neutron radiation) it’s marginally safer depending on how much x-ray radiation.
