I What is the actual definition of the position of an object?
I only believe that an observer or position detector will give the trajectory as predicted by laws of motion . Think of position as just a value given by a position detector with respect to time. Then there will be no meaning of position without observer- quantum philosopher

I What is the actual definition of the position of an object?
The body passes through a specific position at a specific time that means an observer is continuously observing that body and at some particular time he gets that particular value of position which you are talking about . Thus it is absolutely an event ( getting specific value of position by...- quantum philosopher

I What is the actual definition of the position of an object?
No I never asserted that . Events and phenomenon occur irrespective of whether there is an external observer or not . Events and observables are not the same thing thus noise(phenomenon ) due to a falling(event) tree cannot be compared with value of observable due to observation .- quantum philosopher

I What is the actual definition of the position of an object?
It is not about gain it is about logic and definition . Some quantities are always same when measured like mass(as far as I know) , charge , intelligence(of a person) , etc . Those properties you are calling intrinsic properties because they don't appear to be dependent on observation. But you...- quantum philosopher

I think yes . Every observable is the property ofobservation .- quantum philosopher

I What is the actual definition of the position of an object?
You know brain is attached to a body between the ears so only after "interacting or observing" my ears you can get position values for my ears and then calculate my brain position .- quantum philosopher

OK now I will be very specific . Define what is position (in any way that you want)- quantum philosopher

What do you mean by an object "is in". Observations only give a sense of "is in" .So I don't think that we can define position without observation- quantum philosopher

I said to also define location if you use that term- quantum philosopher

Then how do you define far away ? Also consider that can you define position with interaction.- quantum philosopher

I What is the actual definition of the position of an object?
Can you ever perceive position of an object without interaction ? If no then it is just a property of interaction with the object and not object itself . If we continuously observe an object in time we see that the curve of location or position with respect to time is continuous with respect to...- quantum philosopher

I What is the actual definition of the position of an object?
We always talk of position of objects but what is the actual definition of position ? If someone say that it is the "space coordinate or set of coordinates where the object is located" then he have to define also what is meant by located . Is position just a value or set of values that we get...- quantum philosopher

I Observing observables of an entity
By entities I mean something that we know it exists . I can never say it is localized in space . I can say that when I measure it's location I get one and only one value.- quantum philosopher

I Observing observables of an entity
Nowhere I found any text regarding how do observation takes place so my research is done in my copy using my own thinking . And in quantum mechanics different interpretations are there . So I have also developed my own interpretation . According to my research (may be wrong) which is...- quantum philosopher

I Observing observables of an entity
How do you define a particle and a quantum state? Only after knowing that I can say what I mean according to you.- quantum philosopher
