static
Immobile, unmoving, or in equilibrium; the opposite of dynamic. Often refers to forces or structures in physics and construction.
Die Brücke muss so konstruiert sein, dass sie den statischen Belastungen standhält.
The bridge must be designed so that it can withstand the static loads.
The adjective 'statisch' (static) belongs to the noun 'die Statik' (statics / structural analysis). Statics is the study of the equilibrium of forces, especially important in architecture and civil engineering.
Ein Architekt muss die Statik eines Gebäudes genau berechnen.
An architect has to calculate a building's structural stability precisely.
In the technical sense (meaning 1), 'statisch' (static) refers to structures and forces, e.g. 'Brücke' (bridge), 'Last' (load). In the figurative sense (meaning 2), it describes unchanging, rigid concepts, e.g. 'Denkweise' (way of thinking), 'System' (system).
Die statische Prüfung des Gebäudes war erfolgreich.
The structural inspection of the building was successful.
When 'statisch' (static) is used in connection with electricity, it almost always appears in the phrase 'statisch aufgeladen' (statically charged) or in reference to a 'statische Entladung' (static discharge).
Mein Pullover aus Synthetik ist statisch aufgeladen.
My synthetic sweater is statically charged.
In a technical context, 'statisch' (static) is often combined with nouns such as 'Belastung' (load), 'Berechnung' (calculation), 'Druck' (pressure), or 'Gleichgewicht' (equilibrium).
Die Ingenieure analysieren die statische Belastung der Dachkonstruktion.
The engineers are analyzing the static load on the roof structure.
electric
'elektrisch' and 'statisch' can both appear in connection with electricity. 'elektrisch' generally says that something has to do with electricity, for example a device or a motor. 'statisch' only fits in this special context when it is about static electricity, meaning a charge caused by friction. Learners may confuse the words because you often hear 'statische Elektrizität' (static electricity). For devices, cables, or electrical operation, however, 'elektrisch' is the natural word.
Nach dem Trocknen waren meine Haare statisch aufgeladen.
After drying, my hair was statically charged.
In der Küche benutzen wir einen elektrischen Wasserkocher.
In the kitchen, we use an electric kettle.
