JEE Math Practice Question

Let $\mathrm{P}$ be a point on the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{4}=1$. Let the line passing through $\mathrm{P}$ and parallel to $y$-axis meet the circle $x^2+y^2=9$ at point $\mathrm{Q}$ such that $\mathrm{P}$ and $\mathrm{Q}$ 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 :

  1. A.$\frac{13}{21}$
  2. B.$\frac{\sqrt{139}}{23}$
  3. C.$\frac{\sqrt{13}}{7}$
  4. D.$\frac{11}{19}$
