Explanation:
The position vector of a particle is defined as the vector starting from the origin to the point where the particle is. ... The displacement vector of a particle is defined as the vector joining its initial position to its final position. In other words, the displacement vector is a change in position vector.
⭕ Definition:-
A vector that indicates the position of a point in a coordinate system is referred to as POSITION VECTOR.
⭕For example:-
Suppose we have a fixed reference point O, then we can specify the position the position of a given point P with respect to point O by means of a vector having magnitude and direction represented by a directed line segment OP .This vector is called POSITION VECTOR.

⭕ Definition:-
A displacement vector is a concept from mathematics. It is a vector. It shows the direction and distance traveled with a straight line. It is often used in physics to display the speed, acceleration and distance of an object traveled (relative to a reference point or an object's starting position).
