Yes, it's different. The Spanish "r" is known as the "soft r", and it's pronounced like the ones in the English word "arbor". The "rr" in the other hand, is known as "hard r", and it's pronounced like the roaring of the engine of an automobile.

Yes, they are different. rr means you have to roll or trill the letter. The single r is just pronounced like the English r.
