Tone is the quality of the sound (shrill, deep)
Pitch is whether the note is low or high
Rhythm is the repeating pattern of the tune
rat tat tat, rat tat tat ...
Beat is the underlying base rhythm ...
One, two, One two, etc.

Tone is what you are hearing, pitch is a property of that tone. So, you maybe hearing a tone come out of your guitar when you pluck the E-string, but it might not be an E if it's not tuned to the correct pitch, it might be an E-flat or an F.

Rhythm is the pattern to whatever music your playing. The beat is the count...so, in 4/4 music the beats are 1 - 2 - 3 - 4, all as quarter notes. If you talk about how many beats you have in a minute, that's tempo.

the difference between tone and pitch is that tone is how the notes of the music sound while pitch is the note that is being made. And the difference between rhythm and beat is that rhythm is more the pace of the music and beat is the count of the pace/time that the music is set at. Really these thing are more related then different.

im not completly sure about this but tone is how the sound sounds, like how a chord on a piano sounds. the one thing that i kno for sure is: pitch is how high or low the sound is.
