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

Assertion (A) :
Three identical spheres of same mass undergo one dimensional motion as shown in figure with initial velocities $$v_A = 5\,\text{m/s},\; v_B = 2\,\text{m/s},\; v_C = 4\,\text{m/s}$$. If we wait sufficiently long for elastic collision to happen, then $$v_A = 4\,\text{m/s},\; v_B = 2\,\text{m/s},\; v_C = 5\,\text{m/s}$$, will be the final velocities.
Reason (R): In an elastic collision between identical masses, two objects exchange their velocities. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
