Explain how intensity and penetrating power of X-rays from X-ray tube would be affected by changing the filament current 

When the filament current is increased, the intensity of the X-rays increases since the number of electrons hitting the target increases but the penetrating power remains constant since the kinetic energy of the electrons is not changed.
