Can we Override static methods in java?

We can declare static methods with same signature in subclass, but it is not considered overriding as there won’t be any run-time polymorphism. Hence the answer is ‘No’.

If a derived class defines a static method with same signature as a static method in base class, the method in the derived class hides the method in the base class.
