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:
1. \(\frac{2C_1}{n_1n_2}\)
2. \(16\frac{n_2}{n_1}C_1\)
3. \(2\frac{n_2}{n_1}C_1\)
4. \(\frac{16C_1}{n_1n_2}\)
