How harmful would it be to have an x-ray taken if you have a tattoo?
It is no more harmful than a normal x-ray. There was a myth about having an x-ray react with the metal used to color the ink in a tattoo, but the x-ray will not affect the metal at all. Nor will an MRI interact with the tattoo.

What are the parts of x-ray machine?

Apart of that there is also a image capture camera that displays the denser images white and the less dense images less white. If you wanna know more about it. here is a link

What is the difference between a hard beam and a soft beam?
- A hard beam is one that contains a greater number of high energy photons than low energy photons.
- A soft beam is one that contains a greater number of low energy photons that high energy photons.
During the filtration of a heterogenous beam (one that contains photons with different energies), low energy photons are removed from the beam, effectively "hardening" it.
What does the ray in X-ray mean?
Wilhelm Röntgen was the one who gave them the name "X-rays", though many referred to these as "Röntgen rays" for several decades after their discovery. The presence of some unknown ray was deduced from its effect on photographic film/plates when sealed in light tight containers. Röntgen referred to the radiation as "X", to indicate that it was an unknown type of radiation. The name stuck, although (over Röntgen's great objections) many of his colleagues suggested calling them Röntgen rays. They are still referred to as such in many languages, including German.
