amplitude
The characteristic of a wave that describes the greatest distance it travels, or vibrates from a resting position is called the amplitude, which is the technical name. A more common name would be loudness.
It is called the Amplitude. The crest isn't right because the crest/peaks are only the highest points in a wave. People always mix them up.

the distance and direction to the water fountain
When measured, this distance (from normal to peak) is considered to be 1/2 of the amplitude. Amplitude is defined as the peak-to-peak distance.
That's the magnitude of 'Displacement'.If you want the complete 'Displacement', you also have to includethe direction from Point-A to Point-B.
Position is a vector and displacement is also a vector. The difference is that, position describes a specific point relative to a reference point and displacement is the straight-line distance and direction from one point to another.
