A series combination of n(1) capacitors,...

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

A

`(16 C_(1))/(n_(1)n_(2))`

B

`(2C_(1))/(n_(1)n_(2))`

C

`16 (n_(2))/(n_(1))C_(1)`

D

`2(n_(2))/(n_(1))C_(1)`
