Elevator moving at constant velocity

if an elevator moves 100 meters at constant V....does this mean NO work is done? Work=F*x. Since The elevator is moving at constant V, acceleration must equal zero making Force zero.

so does this mean there is zero work done?

Correct. Assuming a frictionless surface.

There is no net work being performed on the elevator.
