$A$ series combination of $N_1$ capacitors (each of capacity $C_1$) is charged to a potential difference $3V$. Another parallel combination of $N_2$ capacitors (each of capacity $C_2$) is charged to a potential difference $V$. The total energy stored in both combinations is the same. The value of $C_1$ in terms of $C_2$ is:

Consider two charged metallic spheres $S_{1}$ and $S_{2}$ of radii $R_{1}$ and $R_{2},$ respectively. The electric fields $E_{1}$ (on $S_{1}$) and $E_{2}$ (on $S_{2}$) on their surfaces are such that $E_{1} / E_{2} = R_{1} / R_{2}.$ Then the ratio $V_{1} / V_{2}$ of the electrostatic potentials on each sphere is:
