Why does it take more force to slid a heavy box across carpet that it does to slide it across a tiled floor?
It takes more force to slide a heavy box across carpet compared to a tiled floor because carpet provides more resistance due to its higher coefficient of friction. The rough texture of the carpet surface increases the friction between the box and the carpet, making it harder to move the box. On the other hand, the smooth surface of the tile floor reduces friction, requiring less force to slide the box.
Why does a marble roll further on a tiled floor than a carpet?
The marble is really good at conducting heat away from your hand but because the carpet isn't as dense and has lots of air between the fibres it is not a very good heat conductor. Because the marble is a goodheat conductor it cools down your feet quickly and so they feel colder but the carpet cannot cool down your feet. An interesting experiment to try is to get three bowls and put hot water in one, cold water in another and a 50:50 mix of hot and cold in the third. Put one hand in the hot water and the other hand in the cold water for 20 seconds and then put them both into to third bowl. Try it but be careful that the water isn't too hot.

Is tile or slate strong enought to hold a piano?
The tile is not the issue as much as the sturdiness of the sub floor and the installation of cement board over the sub floor that keeps the tile and grout from cracking. Tile on a cement slab should hold just fine, as long as there are no unsupported pockets between the two. Our upright piano is on a tiled floor with no issues.
What is the hotter a carpet or a tiled floor in the same temperature?
