A series combination of n 1 capacitors, each of value C 1 is charged by a source of potential difference 4V. When another parallel combination of n 2 capacitors, each of value C 2 , is charged by a source of potential difference V, it has the same (total) energy stored in it, as the first combination has. The value of C 2 , in terms of C 1 , is then
