Tap: “i tapped my finger on the table.”
Click: “I heard the click of her mouse (computer remote).”
“Tap” is the word we use for noises that people make with their feet or hands, usually. “Click” is the word we use for noises that come from certain objects. They could be described as nouns or verbs (like in the examples I used.)
