The locus of the midpoint of the line segment joining the point $(4,3)$ and the points on the ellipse $x^{2}+2y^{2}=4$ is an ellipse with eccentricity:

Let $E$ be the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{16}+\frac{y^2}{9}=1$. For any three distinct points $P, Q$ and $Q^{\prime}$ on $E$,let $M(P, Q)$ be the mid-point of the line segment joining $P$ and $Q$,and $M(P, Q^{\prime})$ be the mid-point of the line segment joining $P$ and $Q^{\prime}$. Then the maximum possible value of the distance between $M(P, Q)$ and $M(P, Q^{\prime})$,as $P, Q$ and $Q^{\prime}$ vary on $E$,is:
