Explanation:

For the first question: In music notation, a rest indicates a period of silence, and a quarter rest specifically represents silence for one beat.
For the second question: In standard 4/4 time (the most common time signature), a whole note/rest is 4 beats, a half is 2, a quarter is 1, an eighth is 0.5, and a sixteenth rest is $\frac{1}{4}$ or 0.25 beats.

Answer:

1. There is silence
2. 0.25 beats
