The quality of a musical note depends on the number and relative intensity of the overtones it produces along with the fundamental. It is the element of quality that enables us to distinguish between notes of the same frequency and intensity coming from different sources.

what note is this I need to know right now
I am 90 percent certain it is an F# note.
Given that the A above middle C has a frequency of 440 hertz, the lowest note on a regular piano has a frequency, rounded to two decimal places, of 27.50 hertz. Taking this an octave further down gives a frequency of 13.75, too low for a human ear to hear. Descending ten semitones, to two Bs below the bottom end of a piano, gives a frequency approximately equal to 13.75/(2^(1/12)10) = 7.72 Hertz, the closest genuine note to a 7.8 hertz frequency.
