(B) Given,$\frac{dx}{dt} = 2 	ext{ units/sec}$.Given equation of the parabola is $y = 2x^2$.Differentiating with respect to $t$,we get $\frac{dy}{dt} = 4x \cdot \frac{dx}{dt}$.Substituting $\frac{dx}{dt} = 2$,we get $\frac{dy}{dt} = 4x(2) = 8x$ ... $(i)$.Let $r$ be the distance of the point $(x, y)$ from the origin $(0, 0)$,so $r = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}$.The rate of change of distance is $\frac{dr}{dt} = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{x^2 + y^2}} \cdot \frac{d}{dt}(x^2 + y^2) = \frac{2x \frac{dx}{dt} + 2y \frac{dy}{dt}}{2\sqrt{x^2 + y^2}} = \frac{x \frac{dx}{dt} + y \frac{dy}{dt}}{\sqrt{x^2 + y^2}}$.Substituting $\frac{dx}{dt} = 2$ and $\frac{dy}{dt} = 8x$,we get $\frac{dr}{dt} = \frac{x(2) + y(8x)}{\sqrt{x^2 + y^2}} = \frac{2x + 8xy}{\sqrt{x^2 + y^2}}$.At the point $(1, 2)$,$x = 1$ and $y = 2$.$\frac{dr}{dt} = \frac{2(1) + 8(1)(2)}{\sqrt{1^2 + 2^2}} = \frac{2 + 16}{\sqrt{1 + 4}} = \frac{18}{\sqrt{5}} 	ext{ units/sec}$.
