Intensity of light constant..why rate of emission of electrons changes??

Intensity of light constant..why rate of emission of electrons changes as frequency of the incident light increased??... is the rate increase or decrease??
help me.. thanks..

Intensity of light constant

So the energy carried by the light per second stays constant.

..why rate of emission of electrons changes as frequency of the incident light increased??

As the frequency of the light increases, what happens to the energy of a single photon? What does this do to the number of photons carried by the light per second, in view of the first statement above?

Thread 'Quantum behaviour of an electron around a positively charged sphere'

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
