In the original Latin alphabet, the character "v" sufficed for both the consonant "v" and the vowel "u". The replacement of the character "u" with "v" can be seen on neoclassical architecture in the United States, derived from the American Renaissance movement (1876-1917), reflecting the Ancient Roman influence on the architectural style.

Are you able to divide 3 fractions instead of 2?
Yes. a/b / u/v / r/s = (a*v)/(b*u) / r/s = (a * v * s) / (b * u * r)
Why is v used instead of u in stone carving?
Its just an easier letter to form, curves are quite hard to do in stone.
Why do you used v instead of the s for speed formula?
S is usually used for position and v for velocity or speed.
Why is New York Public Library spelled out pvblic?
Because in Latin, the letter that is now our modern "v" was used for the "u" sound. Sometimes people still use "v" instead of "u," when they want to be fancy, especially in inscriptions on buildings. See the Related Link below for more details.
What are some Latin words that begin with the letter u?
Any word that is pronounced nowadays that begins with/has a U e.g. Flavius would have been spelt with a V instead of a U.
How do you factor you² 2u 1 - v²?
Do you mean: u² + 2u + 1 - v²? If so then= (u + 1)2 - v2= [(u + 1) + v][(u + 1) - v]= (u + 1 + v)(u + 1 - v)
In physics if v equals u plus at how do i change the fumula to make you a or t the subject?
If: v = u+at Then: -u = -v+at or u = v-at (by dividing all terms by -1) a = (v-u)/t t = (v-u)/a
Solve u plus v times u-v when you equals 5i plus j and when v equals i-6j?

Why is court spelled with a v in most government buildings?
The V is an affectation of the Roman style of carving the letter U but even in casual writing the romans used their letter V as both the consonant V and the vowel U. It was not until the 18th century that the letters U and V became otherwise completely differentiated.
What are the three formulas used in Uniformly Accelerated Motion?
The SUVAT equations: s=ut + 1/2at^2 v= u + at v^2 = u^2 + 2as s=1/2(u+v)t s = displacement u= initial velocity v= final velocity a= acceleration t= time
What is W?
The W descends from the Latin V, which was originally used for the u,v and w sounds. Julius was written ivlivs. After the 11th Century writers began differentiating the sounds, using the round u form for u and the v form for v sounds.A little later the W appeared, made from two "V"s (called "U"s), for the consonant u sound at the beginning of a word and the vocalic u sound at the end of a syllable.
What do i do to Make U the subject v squared equals u squared plus 2as?
Rearranging: v² = u² + 2as → u² + 2as = v² ________________ writing equation the other way round to get u² on the left → u² = v² - 2as _________________ subtracting 2as from both sides → u = ±√(v² - 2as) ______________ taking the square root of both sides
