A results below were recorded during tensile test for a steel specimen to be used to manufacture water reticulation steel pipes. The diameter of the specimen measured by an electronic vernier was found to be 0.597cm. Other measurements noted were the gauge length of 5.010cm,elongation 0.0635mm at load of 7.11kn, 7.33kn load at the yield point and 8.15kn load at the point of failure. The reduction of the cross-sectional at failure is estimated to be 35.06%. Calculate the yield stress in N/mm^2
