Not in compensation for your "normal" work hours. If you are employed to work a 40 hour week, and you work 40 hours, you must be paid 40 hours pay. However - it becomes a little more cloudy when it comes to overtime compensation. An employer must reimburse you with overtime compensation (time-and-a-half - you earn one hour & 30 minutes for every hour of overtime) BUT he has the option of either paying you or forcing you to take "compensated time off."
To keep it simple - use this example: You work 41 hours this week, earning 40 hours of straight pay and one and 1/2 hours of overtime. Your employer tells you that he isn't going to pay you, for your overtime but that you can come in an hour and a 1/2 late, or take off an hour and a 1/2 early at some future date. THIS IS JUST AN EXAMPLE - Various state labor laws address this issue in different ways, and it is also subject to labor contract negotiations, so the example may not be a universal practice but it is a fairly typical example. Check with your state's Wage and Labor Board for information specific to your state.

No limit on hours, just overtime on hours over 40 in one work week. If you do not have a contract with your employer limiting the hours, you can be forced to work the hours.

If you work 40 hours a week, your done! You dont have to work anymore hours if you dont want to. It is against the law for any employer to force their employees to work if they dont want to. Call the labor board if you feel your rights have been violated. As for hours, you can work all the hours you want as long as its approved with your employer.
