From most to least likely:

1. Starter solenoid is not getting power

2. Starter solenoid is bad

3. Starter gear is stripped

4. Flywheel ring gear is stripped

Age of starter is not really relevant. It is possible to get a defective one.

Check electrical connections. Some cars have a separate wire to the solenoid.

Remove starter, look for obvious damage to gears.

If you don't see anything really glaring, like a chunk of flywheel missing, take the starter to any auto parts chain store. Most of them have a testing setup and do the testing for free.

What can you do to prevent pollution in an area?

Secondary pollution occurs when primary forms of air pollution, such as vehicle exhaust and factory emissions, interact with each other to form new kinds of pollution. Acid rain, for instance, is a form of secondary air pollution. If you prevent primary pollutants from getting into the atmosphere, you eliminate the ingredients necessary for secondary pollution to occur, thereby creating the secondary effect that these additional pollutants do not form in the first place.

2 causes of noise pollution?

A study was carried out to determine levels and factors that influence noise pollution from small-scale industries (SSIs) in Dar es Salaam City Tanzania. Two sites for wood- and metalworks industries were investigated. Both sites exhibited equivalent noise levels higher than 90.0 dBA, the permissible exposure level limit for occupational noise. At a woodworks SSI, noise levels were found to correlate well with machine-use age, wood-feed speed, and wood-cut depth. Additionally, noise emanating from both types of SSIs was found to influence the level of environmental noise in the neighborhood of the SSIs. One woodworks SSI was found to have a circle of influence of about 140 m. The study concluded that SSIs present a serious source of environmental noise pollution in their neighborhoods. Noise pollution from SSIs is greatly influenced by the type of SSIs and the activities they carry out, the type and age of machines they use, their location relative to residential areas in their vicinity, and in-house noise control measures.
