No work is being done. Work is when an object moves in the same direction as the force applied to it.

One situation in which no work is done to an object?

2 examples where no work is being done is:1) When an object is at rest, such as a ball on a flat plane that is not rolling.2) When an isolated system has reached maximum entropy, such as the ice in a glass having melted completely.Work is using force to move something, so anything that doesn't use any force or move anything is not work.

The answer would depend on the units used for the force. Since these are not specified, it is not possible to answer the question.


If you push a box forward and the box moves forward you have done how much work?

You have only done as much external work on the box as the distance it moves: work = force x distance. If it does not budge no work is done on the object. You have done "internal" work on your muscles which converts to heat energy, but technically speaking, no external work is done on the object
