An electromagnetic wave travelling in $x$-direction is described by field equation $E_y = 300 \sin \omega \left( t - \frac{x}{c} \right)$. If the electron is restricted to move in $y$-direction only with speed of $1.5 \times 10^6 \text{ m/s}$, then the ratio of maximum electric and magnetic forces acting on the electron is . . . . . . .
