With increase in the potential, the energy of the energy of the striking electrons increases. Due to this high energy electrons falling on the metal surface, the X-rays produced gets more energy. The penetrating power of X-rays increases when we increase the energy of X-rays. As the energy increases, frequency of the x-ray photons also increases. But the intensity of the x-rays depends on the intensity of the bombarding electrons. So, intensity of the x-ray will remain same.
