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 the same (total) energy stored in it, as the first combination has. The value of $C_2,$ in terms of $C_1$ is then

A parallel plate capacitor of capacitance $C$ is connected to a battery and is charged to a potential difference $V$. Another capacitor of capacitance $2C$ is connected to another battery and is charged to potential difference $2V$. The charging batteries are now disconnected and the capacitors are connected in parallel to each other in such a way that the positive terminal of one is connected to the negative terminal of the other. The final energy of the configuration is
