Explain the mechanism of drag and lift force generation for thewing using Newton's law.
Here are hints:
If the wing does not exist, the velocity distribution is uniformat v=U_inf.
Therefore, the x-directional velocity of the air is deceralatedby the wing.
This implies that the wing applied a force in the -x-directionto the air (Newton's second law).
In other words, the air flow applied a force in the x-directionto the wing (Newton's third law).
This is the mechanism of drag generation.
