Effective capacitance of parallel combination of two capacitors $C_{1}$ and $C_{2}$ is $10\; \mu F$. When these capacitors are individually connected to a voltage source of $1\; V,$ the energy stored in the capacitor $C_{2}$ is $4$ times that of $C_{1}$. If these capacitors are connected in series,their effective capacitance will be (in $; \mu F$)

  • A
    $3.2$
  • B
    $8.4$
  • C
    $1.6$
  • D
    $4.2$
