In order for the frictional force to come into play the block must be moving or on the verge of moving. The Frictional force opposes the motion of the block or its "impending" motion. If the block is just sitting on a table with no horizontal forces trying to get it moving then the frictional force is zero.
9.1, because 9.09999 is on the verge of becoming 9.1. There is no number just after the decimal point, which makes 9.1 the larger number.

Since you are asking this question, I am thinking you are on the verge of buying a new bed. Well, I am here to help you. I have been in the same spot as you a couple of years ago. I had a set of twins who liked to roll about and do plenty of rough play. I was looking for a set of beds that my twins wouldn’t demolish within a year. I started looking up the differences between metal bed frames and solid wood bed frames. After my research, I found out that although metal bed frames are sturdy, wooden bed frames are the safer bet. The wood is sturdier and can handle a lot more wear and tear than metal bed frames. And since we had no plans of moving anywhere in the near future, wooden beds seemed the better choice. I am glad to say that the wood bed frames I got from Wakefit have more than served the purpose. The beds are sturdy and durable and do not show any sign of wear and tear even after everything my twins put them through.
Probably the greatest driving force behind the invention of the mechanical clock was the need to keep accurate time on ships. Besides, sundials only work when and where the sun is shining, so they're useless in bad weather, at night, or indoors.++Shipping's needs improved clocks, but did not lead to their invention per se.Mechanical clocks go back to about the 14C, and were used in monasteries to ring bells announcing the various daily services. The oldest known in working order though not entirely all-original parts, is in Salisbury Cathedral (S. England). These early clocks were not very accurate at all - the sundial had to be used to calibrate them regularly - as they used a purely inertial escapement called a "verge and foliot", because the harmonic principle of the pendulum had not yet been discovered. Quote from the cathedral's own web-site:"Europe's oldest working clock (AD1386), now situated in the north nave aisle, used to be located in the Bell Tower (demolished in 1789). It has "ticked" more than 5 million times since it was first built"Some sources consider the it world's oldest surviving mechancial clock. It never had a dial but signalled church services by bell. It is still ticking!The marine chronometer was an 18C invention by Harrison, specifically for accurate time-keeping for navigation.Sundials are also "useless" unless designed for their latitudes, too: the gnomon angle is quite critical if you want any sort of accuracy from it. There are modern versions that will work indoors, using a suitable window. One type uses a special pattern etched onto the glass itself.
