According to Einstein, increasing the brightness of a beam of light without changing its color will increase?

Explanation:

According to Einstein, increasing the brightness of a beam of light without changing its color will increase? The answer is "the number of photons." However, I am confused with this answer.

glass has been rated on the mohs scale as 5.5

when two balls of the different masses are dropped from equal height, they reach the ground at the same time .this is because they experience the same acceleration.

the acceleration is independent of mass.

thus when they are dropped they will always maintain the same velocity and travel the same distance (neglect air resistance of course) at the same time.
