A beam of light travelling along \mathrm{ X-axis} is described by the electric field \mathrm{ E_{y}=900 \sin \omega(\mathrm{t}-x / c).} The ratio of electric force to magnetic force on a charge \mathrm{ \mathrm{q}} moving along \mathrm{ Y-axis} with a speed of \mathrm{ 3 \times 10^{7} \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}} will be : \mathrm{ \text { (Given speed of light }=3 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}}

\mathrm{E_y=900 \sin (\omega(t-x / c)) }

\mathrm{\frac{F_E}{F_M}=\frac{q E}{q \text { VBsin } 90^{\circ}} }


\mathrm{V=3 \times 10^7 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} }

\mathrm{\frac{E}{B}=3 \times 10^8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} }

\mathrm{\frac{F_E}{F_M}=\frac{E}{V B}=\frac{3 \times 10^8}{3 \times 10^7}=\frac{10}{1}}

Hence 3 is correct option.
