$A$ point moves along the arc of the parabola $y = 2x^2$. Its abscissa increases uniformly at the rate of $2 \text{ units/sec}$. At the instant the point is passing through $(1, 2)$,its distance from the origin is increasing at the rate of

  • A
    $\frac{36}{\sqrt{5}} \text{ units/sec}$
  • B
    $\frac{18}{\sqrt{5}} \text{ units/sec}$
  • C
    $\frac{36}{5} \text{ units/sec}$
  • D
    $\frac{18}{5} \text{ units/sec}$
