$A$ composite parallel plate capacitor is made up of two different dielectric materials with different thicknesses ($t_{1} = 0.5 \text{ mm}$ and $t_{2} = 1 \text{ mm}$) and dielectric constants ($\epsilon_{r1} = 3$ and $\epsilon_{r2} = 4$) as shown in the figure. The two dielectric materials are separated by a conducting foil $F$. The voltage of the conducting foil is $.....V$.

$A$ 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:
