Final answer:

For work to be accomplished, there must be a force exerted and displacement in the same direction as the force.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for work to be accomplished, there must be a force exerted and displacement in the direction of the force. This means that an action that causes movement is necessary for work to occur. Option 4: A force and a movement in the same direction as the force is the correct choice.

For example, if you push a box across the floor, you are applying a force and the box is moving in the same direction as the force. This is an example of work being done.
