A 'V' shaped valley has been formed by a stream or river. A 'U' shaped valley has been formed by the action of a glacier. Therefore, should a glacier form in the mountains, the ice, pushed downhill by the weight of fresh snow constantly being added high above, will gouge out the 'V' shaped river valley and form the 'U' shaped glacial valley.

Why do mountain streams have V-shaped valleys?
Mountain streams have V-shaped valleys because of the erosive force of running water. The water flowing in the stream wears away the rock and soil in the valley through processes like abrasion and hydraulic action, creating a downward sloping V shape. This erosion deepens and widens the valley over time, forming the characteristic V-shaped valleys seen in mountainous regions.
