A sled is traveling down along a curve which can be approximated by the parabola y = x2. When point B on the runner is coincident with point A on the curve (xA = 2m, yA = 1 m), the speed if B is measured as vB = 8 m/s and the increase in speed is dvB/dt = 4 m/s2. Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of point B at this instant.

A:
a = 8.94 m/s2
B:
a = 12.00 m/s2
C:
a = 16.10 m/s2
D:
a = 8.16 m/s2
