Below are two statements. One is labeled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other as Reason $(R).$
Assertion $(A):$ The property of an object that allows it to regain its original shape after the external force applied to it is removed is called elasticity.
Reason $(R):$ The restoring force depends on the intermolecular and interatomic forces in a solid.
In the context of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

  • A
    $A$ is false,but $R$ is true.
  • B
    $A$ is true,but $R$ is false.
  • C
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true,and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A.$
  • D
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true,but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A.$
