Typical symptom of a battery that went bad. Although if the power supply
can't produce enough power anymore, it will act up the same in some
cases. If it isn't either one, then it is the motherboard.

What is the make and model of this laptop? I am asking mainly because
viewing the temperatures of both the CPU(s) and GPU(s) [if you have
GPU(s)] would be really helpful right now. Also what OS and version is
it running?

That doesn't sound good, but depending on a number of things might be
normal. There are power settings that can change clock speeds of the CPU
and GPU automatically. And lower power modes lower or under clock them.
And when they are running under clocked, they can run cool enough that
the fan never kicks in. And that could explain what is happening. That
is why using utilities to monitor the temperatures (and clock speeds)
would tell you if it is or isn't.
