Concept of position, Concept of distance and displacement Distinction between distance and displacement. CONCEPT OF POSITION The position of an object is its location in space. It is usually expressed in relation to a reference point. To locate an object in space, a co-ordinate system is needed. It is usually a mathematical construct with co-ordinates.
