ANSWER

E. No, since work involves a non-zero displacement

EXPLANATION

Work done on an object is given by,

[tex]W=F\cdot d\cdot\cos \theta[/tex]

Where W is work, F is the force applied on the object, d is the displacement of the object and θ is the angle between the applied force and the displacement.

Note that if there's no motion, then d = 0. Because d is multiplying the other variables, if d = 0 then work is zero as well.

Hence, the answer is option E.
