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:
