Answer to Question 1

kVp

Rationale: Higher kVp will increase the production of scatter radiation which contributes to the image with a long scale contrast as result.

Answer to Question 2

superior to the EAM

Rationale: The central ray is directed 1-2 superior to the EAM to ensure vertex is included on the image.
