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

`(2C_1)/(n_1n_2)`

B

`16(n_1)/n_2`

C

`2(n_2)/n_1C_1`

D

`(16C_1)/(n_1n_2`
