A capacitor of capacitance \(C=900~\text{pF}\) is charged fully by \(100~\text{V}\) battery \(B\) as shown in Figure \((a)\). Then it is disconnected from the battery and connected to another uncharged capacitor of capacitance \(C=900~\text{pF}\) as shown in Figure \((b)\).

A series combination of n1 capacitors, each of value C1, is charged by a source of potential difference 4V. When another parallel combination of n2 capacitors, each of value C2, 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 C2, in terms of C1, is then:

1. 2C1n1n2

2. 16n2n1C1

3. 2n2n1C1

4. 16C1n1n2
