A rest is the absence of a sound for a defined period of time in music, or one of the musical notation signs used to indicate that.. The length of a rest corresponds with that of a particular note value, thus indicating how long the silence should last.
An eighth note or a quaver is a musical note played for one eighth the duration of a whole note (semibreve). Its length relative to other rhythmic values is as expected—e.g., half the duration of a quarter note (crotchet), one quarter the duration of a half note (minim), and twice the value of a sixteenth note.
A single eighth note, or any faster note, is always stemmed with flags, while two or more are usually beamed in groups. [16] When a stem is present, it can go either up (from the right side of the note head) or down (from the left side), except in the cases of the longa or maxima which are nearly always written with downward stems. In most ...

Semiquaver / Sixteenth note
A single eighth note, or any faster note, is always stemmed with flags, while two or more are typically beamed in groups. [1] In modern practice, beams may span across rests in order to make rhythmic groups clearer. In vocal music, beams were traditionally used only to connect notes sung to the same syllable. [2]
The scherzo movement features a polyrhythmic ostinato present through 80% of the movement, based on two 'eighth note, eighth note, eighth rest' figures one eighth-note out of phase. The interlocking rhythms gives a perpetuum mobile feel to the movement, whose thematic material derives from it as well. [ 5 ]
