Ø (or minuscule: ø) is a letter used in the Danish, Norwegian, Faroese, and Southern Sámi languages. It is mostly used as a representation of mid front rounded vowels, such as [ø] ( listen) and [œ] ( listen), except for Southern Sámi where it is used as an [oe] diphthong.
Ó, ó (o-acute) is a letter in the Czech, Emilian-Romagnol, Faroese, Hungarian, Icelandic, Kashubian, Polish, Slovak, and Sorbian languages.
The Norwegian Ø has two possible pronunciations. The first is a long Ø, which sounds like the “i” in “bird.” The other possibility is a short Norwegian Ø, which is a similar sound, only shorter.
The letter Ø comes from the character Œ, an ancient Roman ligature of O and E. It resembles the vowel u in the English word hurt. Œ is thus an exact parallel to the diphthong AE. There are uncertainties on how the modern form Ø has occurred, but it has been found in texts from the early Middle-Ages.
The slashed zero glyph is often used to distinguish the digit "zero" ("0") from the Latin script letter "O" anywhere that the distinction needs emphasis, particularly in encoding systems, scientific and engineering applications, computer programming (such as software development), and telecommunications.
The symbol that looks like a 0 with a line through it is the greek letter "theta": θ. It is just a variable, you could as easily just call it x instead. For exponents, we usually type ^ (carat) in front.
English: The no symbol (also known as a prohibition sign, no sign, circle-backslash symbol, nay, interdictory circle, or universal no) is a circle with a diagonal line through it (running from top left to bottom right), surrounding a pictogram used to indicate something is not permitted.
o, the fourth vowel of the modern alphabet, corresponding to the Semitic ʿayin, which represented a breathing and not a vowel. The Semitic form may have derived from an earlier sign representing an eye.
You will probably have noticed that some of the letters are redundant; Greek has three letters representing the sound /i/ ('ee') and two representing the sound /o/ ('oo'). This is because in Classical Greek the different letters did actually have different sounds associated with them.

An empty set is denoted using the symbol '∅'. It is read as 'phi'.
It was actually mainly a political decision back in the mid-1500's that made the usage of Ö instead of Ø definite. Before 1523 all of Scandinavia—plus Finland, Iceland and the Faroe Islands—belonged to the Kalmar Union, which for most of its existence was headed by Denmark.
The letter o with umlaut (ö) appears in the German alphabet. It represents the umlauted form of o, resulting in [œ] or [ø]. The letter is often collated together with o in the German alphabet, but there are exceptions which collate it like oe or OE.
Often ǿ is still not used. Ø is equivalent to the vowel and letter Ö in the Icelandic, Swedish, Estonian and Finnish alphabets and languages. The letter Ø is also used in the orthographies of some African languages such as Lendu spoken in Congo-Kinshasa and Koonzime spoken in Cameroon.
Σ σ sigma, pronounced like the s in set. The form ς is only used at the end of a word.
Phi is an irrational mathematical constant, approximately 1.618.., and is often denoted by the Greek letter φ. Other commonly used names for Phi are: Golden Mean, Extreme and Mean Ratio, Divine Proportion and Golden Ratio. Phi is a naturally occurring ratio which exhibits aesthetically pleasing properties.
History. The letter arose to represent an /ø/ sound resulting primarily from i-mutation of /o/. There are at least two theories about the origin of the letter ø: It possibly arose as a version of the ligature, Œ, of the digraph "oe", with the horizontal line of the "e" written across the "o".
A diaeresis always goes over the second vowel, and it means that the vowel is leading off a separate syllable. A diaeresis is a mark placed over a vowel to indicate that the vowel is pronounced in a separate syllable—as in 'naïve' or 'Brontë'. Most of the English-speaking world finds the diaeresis inessential.

The letter "Ø" is sometimes used in mathematics as a replacement for the symbol "∅" (Unicode character U+2205), referring to the empty set as established by Bourbaki, and sometimes in linguistics as a replacement for same symbol used to represent a zero.
Diameter is represented by the symbol Ø and is commonly abbreviated to "dia" or "d".
The 1ø service indicates 1 Phase service; the ø symbol is the capital Greek letter Phi representing phase. In other words, one will NOT hook up both phases or hot lines to the same circuit to run on 240 VAC.
