How did the shark die in the Jaws movies?

I can see how you would be confused by this, but the answer is really quite simple. The shark wasn't mature enough to be put in captivity. It was put in too small of a pool that didn't mimic its surrounings. There was not enough room nor oxygen in the tank. The shark was probably also confused on what was going on, so was unable to save itself.

What is the jaw size of a REGULAR shark?

There are many different sharks, but I do not know which could be called, "Regular".

But, assuming that you are asking about the shark jaw of a fish, and not the mechanical tool called a, "Shark jaw", the common range is from 2 inches to 15 inches, in my opinion. (There are lots of foot-long sharks in people's aquariums, and of course, in the ocean; hence, the 2" size)

Of course, the jaw of, say, a great white shark can be significantly larger, while the largest shark jaw known (a fossilized shark) is over 12 feet in size, fully opened. If you want to own this monster jaw, you can buy it for around $500 million, as I understand it.

Are shark jaws cartilage?

The skeleton of a shark is very different from that of bony fish and terrestrial vertebrates. Sharks and other cartilaginous fish (skates and rays) have skeletons made from cartilage, which is a flexible and dense connective tissue, but they are still considered bones. They function in the same way as human bones do. Like its relatives, rays and skates, the shark's jaw is not attached to the cranium. The jaw's surface, like its vertebrae and gill arches, is a skeletal element that needs extra support due to its heavier exposure to physical stress and its need for extra strength. It has therefore a layer of unique and tiny hexagonal plates called "tesserae", crystal blocks of calcium salts arranged as a mosaic.[6] This gives these areas much of the same strength found in real and much heavier bony tissue.
