A source of potential difference $\displaystyle V$ is connected to the combination of two identical capacitors as shown in the figure. When key ' $\displaystyle K$ ' is closed, the total energy stored across the combination is $\displaystyle E_1$. Now key ' $\displaystyle K$ ' is opened and dielectric of dielectric constant $\displaystyle 5$ is introduced between the plates of the capacitors. The total energy stored across the combination is now $\displaystyle E_2$. The ratio $\displaystyle E_1 / E_2$ will be :
