Wirting a Java Exam in about 3 weeks.... need some help...

Ok I've been studying with mostly old exams and there's some questions that I think I know the answer for but I am not sure. I would like to use this thread to get help from experts like you guys to tell me if I am right.

Ok one question is:

"Why does it not make sense to make a method abstract and static at the same time?"

My answer to that would be it doesn't make sense because "static" makes the method bound to an instance of the class but at the same time abstract would suggest that the class it self is abstract as well, hence there will never be an instance / object of that class?

Is that correct? Or do they want to hear something else?
