The correct option is B ENIAC
The first large scale electronic computer which
became operational in 1946 and contained approximately 18000 vacuum tubes and
could perform 300 multiplications per second was known as ENIAC.
ENIAC was formally dedicated at the University of
Pennsylvania on February 15, 1946 and was heralded as a "Giant Brain"
by the press.[10] It had a speed on the order of one thousand times faster than
that of electro-mechanical machines; this computational power, coupled with
general-purpose programmability, excited scientists and industrialists alike.
The combination of speed and programmability allowed for thousands more
calculations for problems, as ENIAC calculated a trajectory in 30 seconds that
took a human 20 hours.
ENIAC was completed in 1945 and first put to work
for practical purposes at the end of that year.
