The intensity of the x-ray can be increased by the voltage going to the cathode which will increase the amount of electrons being given off through the vacuum and hitting the tungsten target which means more electrons hitting the target so more x-ray radiation being given off. You can also change how fine the beam is because if you have the beam of electrons focused on one area then the increase of the electrons hitting that one area will cause the increase in x-rays being given off instead of them being spread out over a large area.

What happens when the x-ray tube is to close to the chest for an x-ray?
WHILE TAKING A PA VIEW OF CHEST DISTANCE BETWEEN XRAY TUBE AND FILM IS ABOUT 6 FT SO AS TO DECREASE THE MAGNIFICATION AND INCREASE THE SHARPNESS OF IMAGE WHEREAS AN AP VIEW WHICH IS TAKEN AT LESSER DISTANCE THERE IS INCREASED MAGNIFICATION AND DECREASED SHARPNESS. THEREFORE WHEN the X-ray tube is to close to the chest for an X-ray IT CAUSES 1 INCREASED MAGNIFICATION 2 DECREASED SHARPNESS
