Yes. In a typical 4/4 time signature, and all other time signatures, a half note and half rest have a two beat duration. Hence the "Half Note" name. In time signatures such as 3/4 you cannot use more beats than you have. For instance if you have a measure that reads: Quarter; Quarter; the next note cannot be a half. The only way to carry a quarter across a bar line is via a tie or slur.

Give the equivalent or values of notes and rest?

The time values of notes and notes and corresponding rests are the same. Both the quarter note and the quarter rest worth one beat each. Two quarter rests (as well as two quarter notes) are equivalent to a half rest (half note) in duration.


Musical notes and their values from different timesignature?

Notes and rests always carry the same value no matter what the time signature. A quarter note or rest is always held for one beat, but depending on how you're counting the time, it may be more than one count (ex. if your beat is in eighth notes, a quarter note is gonna be two counts- "one and, two and, three and..." but if your beat is in quarter notes, it's just gonna be one count- "one, two, three...")

How many beats does 2 quarter notes get that are connected?

In music, two quarter notes tied together get the same amount of beats as a half note: two beats. If one quarter note is one beat, and you put together two, you get two beats. Remember, one sixteenth plus one sixteenth equals one eighth. One eighth plus one eighth equals one quarter. One quarter plus one quarter equals one half. One half plus one half equals a whole. The same goes for rests, and later on you will probably get some thirty-second notes or sixty-fourth notes. You just go the opposite direction: two sixty-fourth notes equal a thirty-second note. Two thirty-second notes equal a sixteenth note. And then you go to eighths, quarters, halves, and wholes. I hope this helps!
