A potentiometer circuit is set up as shown.The potential gradient across the potentiometer wire, is k volt/cm and the ammeter, present in the circuit, reads 1.0A when two way key is switched off. The balance points, when the key between the terminals (i) 1 and 2 (ii) 1and 3, is plugged in, are found to be at lengths l1cm and l2cm respectively.The magnitudes, of the resistors R and X, in ohm, are then, equal, respectively, to

(a)kl2-l1 and kl2

(b)kl1 and kl2-l1

(c)kl2-l1and kl1

(d)kl1 and kl2

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. \(\frac{16C_1}{n_1n_2}\)
