They are different because they get different counts. 1/2 note & Half Rest: Only gets 2 counts. Quarter Rest & Note: Only gets one count. Long Rest: Counts the number of measures indicated. Single Eighth note: Is half as long as a quarter note. Eta: Depends on how long the Eta(has four notes sort of like a Eighth note) is. If clapped and spoken it goes: 1 eta,2 eta, 3 eta, 4. (Please note: Eta is a uncommon note used only about once or twice. They are somewhat difficult if played.) Hope I helped.

∙ 14y agoA music note is called as note, because without being attentive, a person cannot distinguish the note in a melody or in a sound cluster. In Sanskrit, a note is referred to as 'swara' or 'self-shining'. A note can be a written sign representing the pitch and duration of a musical sound.
A note needs to be noticed and distinguished from other notes in a melody or sound cluster.
Without the involvement of a listener, a note goes unnoticed and hence meaningless and ineffective.
