As Angus said, merino does dry very quickly. And even if it's still damp, it will still insulate and will not rub your feet (although they might smell like wet sheep). That said, you could get some synthetic socks in addition to these if you are really worried, since synthetic will in general dry slightly faster than wool.

Yes it will. Merino dries very quickly. If the air is humid, everything dries more slowly, but Merino will dry quicker than most things.
