Aussie Puzzle - Faverio Maria Claudia

Two kangaroos in love start hopping towards each other from opposite
ends (A and B) of an outback track. They both hop at a constant
speed and meet for the first time 800m away from B. After flirting
for about 10 minutes, they start hopping again, reach the other end
of the track, then hop back and meet again at 400m from A. How long
is the outback track?

Sarah's classes - Faverio Maria Claudia

 

Sarah's classes end at noon. At that very moment, her doggie starts
running towards the school building. He runs three times as fast as
Sarah walks home. They usually meet at 12:18 and go home together for
the remaining ¾ of the path.
One day, Sarah leaves the school building five minutes later, as she
has to speak to her teacher. On that very day, her doggie has been
assaulted by a ferocious wild cat and has been badly wounded. Yet his
love to Sarah lets him forget his wounds, and at noon he leaves home
as usual, although he cannot run, but only limp half as fast as Sarah
walks (at her usual speed). At what time do they meet?
