Maximum displacement is the same as Amplitude
So 0.3 is very correct

"A" in the wave Equation Y = A sin(kx - wt) represents Amplitude (maximum displacement)
Therefore the maximum displacement of the particles according to the given values in the wave Equation is 0.3cm...
D is correct 💯

0.3 is the amplitude, and it's the one we're asked to find out . So it's correct if you substitute it from the general wave motion 's equation.
