Compute all parts of given problem:

Problem: The rolling resistance for steel on steel is quite low; the coefficient of rolling friction is typically ur=0.002. Suppose a 180,000kg locomotive is rolling at 21m/s on level rails.

Part A: If the engineer disengages the engine, how much time will it take the locomotive to coast to a stop?

Part B: How far will the locomotive move during this time?

I want help to determine how much time will it take the locomotive to coast to a stop.
