Why do Boomerangs Come Back?
Answers

ANSWER
When the boomerang is thrown with high spin, a boomerang flies in a curve rather than a straight line. When thrown correctly, a boomerang returns to its starting point. Returning boomerangs consist of two or more arms, or wings, connected at an angle. Each wing is shaped as an airfoil.

Hey mate !
________
✓ A boomerang is an example of gyroscopic precession. The throw of the boomerang gives it an angular velocity perpendicular to its path.
✓ Also, The cross-section of the boomerang is an airfoil which gives it more lift on the top, leading edge than on the bottom. This gives it a torque in a sense, which always acts to precess the boomerang counterclockwise from above.
✓ Since it will tend to "fly" in the direction of the airfoil, the precession causes it to fly in a curved path, circling back toward the thrower.
