Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, if force is acting on a body work done can be zero. When an object is at rest and no external force except gravity is acting on it in this case the work that would be zero as the force acting on it is perpendicular.

For example,

When an object is at rest and no external force except gravity is acting on it in this case the work that would be zero as the force acting on it is perpendicular. Therefore the displacement is zero and if displacement is zero work done would be zero.

We know that,

The work done

W=fs

Suppose that displacement is zero then,

W=f×0

W=0

The work done is zero.
