From what I recall from engineering Statics and Dynamics classes I took something like 20 years ago, a static system has net forces = 0. This means that no acceleration results in the static system. In a dynamic system, the net forces acting upon the system = mA with a resulting acceleration on one or more components of the system. This applies to linear as well as angular motion (ie - pulleys as well as bridge trusses).
Statics and Dynamics was largely applying a few simple rules based upon physics (especially Newtons Laws of motion) using trig and algebra to solve various problems.

If you set a 10 pound weight on your foot that is static. If you drop a 10 pound weight on your foot that is dynamic. The force on your foot will be greater for the dynamic system; because of momentum.

Static, net forces acting on the system = 0.
Dynamic, net forces acting on the system do NOT = 0.

Static system stays the same regardless of changing parameters.
A dynamic system changes in response to changing parameters.

A static system is one that does not change. A dynamic system is one that changes. :)

Static doesnt change and dynamic does
