In most cases yes.
When opened by the starter switch, it sends electricity from the battery to the starter motor to start the car.
may be an old starter motor, get a decent weight tool, and gently hit the starter motor, then start the car again.

If it has a manual transmission - yes. Auto tranny - no.
No bad breaks can not affect the starter or the motor. Nate.
Follow the red battery cable which will eventually lead you to the starter.
Might try putting an air gun on the crank pulley nut but not recommended. Best to replace the starter motor and do it right
Try starting the car. If it doesn't start, then you might have a low charge in your battery! Turn the headlights on and then try to start the car - if the lights dim and you can hear the starter motor solenoid "click" or the starter turns the engine slowly then your battery is more than likely at fault. -if the lights don't dim and you can't hear anything from the starter motor then it is likely to be a loose earth connection or a loose connection to the starter motor solenoid (the thin cable out of the two that connect to your starter motor) Simples.

When you turn the key in your car, the key turns the starter motor, which inturn cranks the flywheel of your motor. Once firing is accomplished the starter is released, as you release the key. If your motor, just cranks and not start, you may have jumped your timing and this will have to be restored by a mechanic, as the timing belt needs changing.
if is manual transmission you can, by pushing the car down a hill and suddenly pulling the clutch while the car is on 2nd gear
the solenoid is broken. sometimes if you strike the starter motor sharply this cures the problem.
