A horizontal turntable at an industrial plant is continuously fed parts into a slot (shown on the left). It then drops these parts into a basket (shown on the right). The turntable is rotating with a constant angular velocity w. There is negligible friction between the parts and slots. The parts exit the slots with a radial velocity Ve relative to the turntable. What is the acceleration of the parts at radius R1 and R2?
