Is work done if there is distance but no displacement?

Hello mate here is your answer»»»
Note that because there is no displacement, the value of the applied forces are equal. In conclusion, no work is done. We can calculate thework done by each force, but usually that is only used for proof that no workis done. Since the object did not move,no work was done.

it's from circular motion. In complete revolution is work done?

To simply state an answer to each question:
No displacement = no work done
the definition of work is when a force acts on an object to displace it
Yes, you can calculate the work done by each force. You can calculate the applied force pushing the mass one way, and the applied force pushing the mass the other way. Note that because there is no displacement, the value of the applied forces are equal.
Ex. 1N pushing right, -1N pushing left - this is a negative value because it is pushing in the opposite direction
Each force applies work to the mass. 1N X 1m = 1J and -1N X 1m = 1J
Because that each force does "work" on the box in the case that the other force is absent
We say there is no work done/there is no displacement because the work done by each force cancels out: W total = 1J + (-1J) = 0J
In conclusion, no work is done. We can calculate the work done by each force, but usually that is only used for proof that no work is done. Since the object did not move, no work was done.
