if we use static import we can access static methods and

disadvantage is u cant know the method or object is from
which class.

The normal import declaration imports classes from packages, so that they can be used without package reference. Similarly the static import declaration imports static members from classes and allowing them to be used without class reference.
Now, we have got an excellent java feature from java 1.5. Ok now we shall see how we can abuse this!

The static import construct allows unqualified access to
static members without inheriting from the type containing
the static members. Instead, the program imports the
members, either individually:
import static java.lang.Math.PI;
or en masse:
import static java.lang.Math.*;
Once the static members have been imported, they may be used
without qualification:
double r = cos(PI * theta);
The static import declaration is analogous to the normal
import declaration. Where the normal import declaration
imports classes from packages, allowing them to be used
without package qualification, the static import declaration
imports static members from classes, allowing them to be
used without class qualification.
