A dotted quarter note is longer in duration compared to a regular quarter note.
A regular quarter note receives one beat in a 4/4 time signature, while a dotted quarter note receives one and a half beats. This is because a dot placed next to a note adds half of the note's value to it. Therefore, a dotted quarter note is equal to a quarter note plus an eighth note, making it longer in duration.
