It varies greatly from product to product and from market
to market. The best way to get an answer is to put an ad on Craigslist
telling what you want installed, the more detail you can give the better the quote will be... ie..
"3/4 inch, unfinished oak hardwood over wood subfloor,
new construction, 400 sq feet, need it done this week, paying cash.".
The lesson here is that the more detail you put in the ad, the better the quote.. You will have to understand that not every installer has Golden Hands, some are thieves & butchers, so you may not always want the low bidder..

A marble floor feels hotter in summer than a carpeted floor because marble conducts heat. Since the heat gets trapped, it travels to the rest of floor raising the temperature. Carpet does not conduct much heat due to tiny holes that allow air ventilation.
Yes, because of rolling friction which is a type of friction that any rolling object experiences. This friction adds resistance to roll which will slow the marble and eventually stop.
