Abstract
- A cambered surface that is moving forward in a fluid generates lift. To explain this interesting fact in terms of simpler models, some preparatory concepts were discussed in the first part of this article. We also agreed on what is an acceptable explanation. Then some popular models were discussed. Some quantitative theories will be discussed in this concluding part. Finally we will tie up all these ideas together and connect them to the rigorous momentum theorem. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
