The ellipse $E_1: \frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{4}=1$ is inscribed in a rectangle $R$ whose sides are parallel to the coordinate axes.

Another ellipse $E _2$ passing through the point $(0,4)$ circumscribes the rectangle $R$.. The eccentricity of the ellipse $E _2$ is

Let $P$ be a point on the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{4}=1$. Let the line passing through $P$ and parallel to $y$-axis meet the circle $x^2+y^2=9$ at point $Q$ such that $P$ and $Q$ are on the same side of the $x$-axis. Then, the eccentricity of the locus of the point $R$ on $P Q$ such that $P R: R Q=4: 3$ as $P$ moves on the ellipse, is :
