The event that most likely occurs at point V in the rock cycle is cooling. This is because point V represents the transition from magma to igneous rock, and this transformation typically involves the cooling and solidification of magma.
This image shows the rock cycle.
The Rock Cycle. Arrows point from 1 stage to next. 1. Metamorphic Rock to point K to Magma to point V to Igneous Rock to Melting back to magma. 2. Metamorphic Rock to point K to Magma to point V to Igneous Rock to Heat and Pressure. 3. Metamorphic Rock to point K to Magma to point V to Igneous Rock to Weathering and Erosion to Sediment to Compacting and Cementing to Sedimentary Rock to Heat and Pressure to Metamorphic Rock. 4. From Sediment to Compacting and Cementing to Sedimentary Rock to Weathering and Erosion back to Sediment. 5. Metamorphic Rock to Weathering and Erosion to Sediment.
