When a big drop of water is formed from $n$ small drops of water, the energy loss is $3E$, where $E$ is the energy of the bigger drop. If $R$ is the radius of the bigger drop and $r$ is the radius of the smaller drop, then the number of smaller drops $(n)$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{4R}{r^2}$
  • B
    $\frac{4R}{r}$
  • C
    $\frac{2R^2}{r}$
  • D
    $\frac{4R^2}{r^2}$
