yes , it is possible.
as you know, workdone is the dot product of force applied on body and displacement of body.
e.g.,
or,
where, is angle between force and displacement.
in this equation, it is clear that workdone will be zero when
1. F = 0, S = 0
2. F = 0 , S ≠ 0
3. F ≠ 0, S = 0
4. F ≠ 0, S ≠ 0 but
hence, there are two possible conditions 3. F ≠ 0 , S = 0 and 4.F ≠ 0, S ≠ 0 but where a body to be in accelerated motion under a force acting on body , yet no work is being done by the force.
