Answer to Question 1

60 kVp and tabletop

Rationale: The dorsoplantar projection of the foot will image the patient tabletop as the part measures less than 10 cm. Average kVp would be 55-60 at this part thickness.

Answer to Question 2

increase in kVp by 5-7

Rationale: A medium plaster cast may require an increase of 5-7 kVp.

This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
