Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. Again, I used the World Clock:

If it is 8:00 a.m. on Tues. Oct 3 and you travel 14 hours, it should then be 16 hours later plus the 14 hours you travel. So if it's 10 p.m. on Wed when you arrive in Sydney, the local time should be Thursday, 2 p.m.
