Final answer:

The statement about the first day of the menstrual cycle is false because Day 1 is the start of menstruation, not ovulation. Displacement for two individuals taking different routes to the same endpoint is the same, making the statement about displacement false. Additionally, it is true that a pebble in water creates a pulse wave, and that waves with different frequencies can superimpose.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement is false: Day 1 of the menstrual cycle is not when the secondary oocyte is released from its follicle. Day 1 is actually the first day of menstruation, marking the start of a new cycle, and during this time the uterus sheds its lining. Ovulation, which is when the secondary oocyte is released, usually occurs around the middle of the cycle, not at the beginning.

Regarding the comparison of the displacement between the two individuals walking different paths, the statement is false. Displacement is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction. Since both people end up at the same destination (if starting from the same point), their displacements would be identical, not different.

It is true that a pebble dropped in water is an example of a pulse wave. A pulse wave is a single disturbance that moves through a medium, and a pebble creating a splash creates such a disturbance in water.

Another true statement is that waves can superimpose if their frequencies are different. Superposition refers to the combination of two or more waves overlapping in space, and this can occur regardless of whether the waves have the same or different frequencies.

The statement about fertilization and ovulation is false. Fertilization can only happen after ovulation has occurred, as the oocyte needs to be released from the ovary before it can be fertilized by sperm.

For the claim about early Methodists, this is true: Early Methodists were indeed called 'Methodists' due to their systematic and methodical approach to religious practice and personal discipline.

Finally, the statement regarding the amplitude of a wave being affected by the amplitude of another wave is false; two waves can affect each other's amplitudes only when they are exactly in phase, which means they are aligned just right in time and space.
