Answers
Answer:
Larger glaciers carve larger, wider valleysRiver valleys are formed due to the kinetic energy of rivers falling from a steep height. The formation of the valley is dependent on the gradient as rivers carry less water during their youthful stagesShape of the valleyGlacial valleys are usually U-shaped . They are wide.

Answer:
Formation of a U-shaped valley happens over geologic time, meaning not during a human's lifespan. It can take anywhere between 10,000 and 100,000 years for a V-shaped valley to be carved into a U-shaped valley. These valleys can be several thousand feet deep and tens of miles long.
Explanation:
Examples of U-valleys are found in mountainous regions like the Andes, Alps, Caucasus Mountains, Himalaya, Rocky Mountains, New Zealand and the Scandinavian Mountains. They are found also in other major European mountains including the Carpathian Mountains, the Pyrenees, the Rila and Pirin mountains in Bulgaria, and the Scottish Highlands. A classic glacial trough is in Glacier National Park in Montana, USA in which the St. Mary River runs. Another famous U-shaped valley is the Nant Ffrancon Valley in Snowdonia, Wales.
When a U-shaped valley extends into saltwater, becoming an inlet of the sea, it is called a fjord, originally the Norwegian word for these formations that are common in Norway. Outside of Norway, a classic U-shaped valley that is also a fjord is the Western Brook Pond Fjord in Gros Morne National Park in Newfoundland, Canada.
