Think of situation when an obejct gets displaced in the absence of a force acting on it.

Answer»

SOLUTION :Yes. If the object moves with a constant velocity, then no force ACTS on it. (Newton.s first law of motion.)
Consider a puck on a horizontal air table (a frictionless table) :
When an impulse is given to the puck, it moves (GETS displaced) with constant velocity in the absence of a force.
An object observed from a moving reference frame :
If you are sitting in a moving train, a tree or a pillar appears to be moving in the opposite DIRECTION.
