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:

The Young's modulus of steel is twice that of brass. Two wires of same length and of same area of cross section, one of steel and another of brass are suspended from the same roof. If we want the lower ends of the wires to be at the same level, then the weights added to the steel and brass wires must be in the ratio of
