Web-researching is probably the best first step; my favorite keyword is: wiki
(followed by the concept, like cpu in this case). Wikipedia has an amazing amount of info.
Another Unix idea is: man -k <keyword> ; in this case, man -k cpu would likely find lscpu

Best wishes in your journey!!! Some distros have their own 'wiki' (which do you use?)
p.s. One additional, tho not directly related here, idea for easily studying Linux is: VirtualBox
