A tensile test uses a test specimen that has a gage length of 50 mm and an area = 208 mm2. During the test, the specimen yields under a load of 95,626 N. The corresponding gage length = 50.36 mm - this is at the 0.2 percent yield point. The maximum load of 168,764 N is reached at a gage length 64 mm. If fracture occurs at a gage length of 68 mm, determine the yield strength in MPa.
