Given below are two statements: One is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.

Assertion $(A)$:The stretching of a spring is determined by the shear modulus of the material of the spring.

Reason $(R)$:A coil spring of copper has more tensile strength than a steel spring of same dimensions.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
