What determines the hardness of the $X-$rays obtained from the Coolidge tube?

$X$-rays of wavelength $0.1 \ \mathring A$ are allowed to fall on a metal and get scattered. The wavelength of the scattered radiation is $0.111 \ \mathring A$. If $h = 6.624 \times 10^{-34} \ J \cdot s$ and $m_0 = 9 \times 10^{-31} \ kg$,then the direction of the scattered photons will be:

An $X$-ray machine has an accelerating potential difference of $25,000$ volts. By calculation, the shortest wavelength will be obtained as....... $\mathring{A}$ ($h = 6.62 \times 10^{-34} \text{ J-s}$; $e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C}$).

The pressure inside an $X$-ray tube is approximately:
