The triangular solid plate ABC is restrained by rod (1) at A and pin support at B. After applying the force P, the solid plate tilts around pin B and after closing the gap = 1.9 mm, pushes element (2). What is the strain in rod (1) if the internal strain in element (2) is E2 = -1020 μE? [L₁= 620 mm, L₂= 680 mm, a = 300 mm, b = 320 mm, gap= 1.9 mm]
