A U-shaped valley begins as a V-shaped river valley. If the temperature is low enough, a glacier (river of ice) forms inside the valley. As the glacier slowly moves, it scours the valley floor when the temperature rises and the glaciers melts away, a U-shaped valley is left behind.

Valleys can form through processes like erosion by rivers, glaciers, or tectonic activity. For example, rivers may erode the land over time, creating a valley. Glaciers can also carve out valleys as they move across the landscape. Tectonic processes like faulting or folding can create valleys as well.
Glaciers create various landforms such as U-shaped valleys, moraines, drumlins, and fjords through processes like erosion, deposition, and melting. For example, as glaciers move, they erode the land beneath them, forming U-shaped valleys. When glaciers retreat, they leave behind piles of debris called moraines. Drumlins are elongated hills formed by glaciers depositing sediments, and fjords are deep, narrow inlets created by glaciers moving through valleys and subsequently melting.
The glaciers rubs against the land form which changes the land form into a U shape valley this works because the ice is so packed it pushes any land as in dirt sand and minerals out the way creating the valley
Glaciers form U-shaped valleys due to their ability to erode and transport large amounts of rock and sediment. As glaciers move downhill, they carve and widen the valley floor, creating a broad and deep U-shaped profile. In contrast, rivers mainly erode the valley through the process of hydraulic action, which tends to create narrower and steeper V-shaped valleys.
Glaciers can form U shaped valleys.
All types of glaciers
They difference between them is where there flow. Continental glaciers are enormous ice sheets, and are found in Greenland and Antarctica. Alpine glaciers form in mountain valleys.
Glaciers are the main agents of erosion that create U-shaped valleys. As glaciers move downhill, they carve out the valley floor and sides through the process of abrasion and plucking. The unique U-shape is a characteristic feature of valleys that have been shaped by glaciers.
Rivers as they errode downwards to form v-shaped valleys.

Glaciers form U-shaped valleys. They make striations, drumlins, kettlelakes, eratics, moraines and cirque.
