Noob question in regards to dividends (using RobinHood)

Hopefully I don't sound like an idiot trying to ask this question with zero background in the stock market...I'm very new.

How do I figure out how much I would make in dividends off of a stock quarterly/annually? ...I'm assuming I need to look at the div/yield?

For example, I was looking into Apple, $165.10/share & div/yield, 1.20.. if I bought one share how much money would I make off of that single share quarterly/annually? And is there a set in stone percentage or if it changes would it change mine, or would I keep the number I bought it at? And do I pay taxes in that?

PS - Would you consider a cash dividend to be better than a stock dividend (I hope I'm asking this correctly, like quarterly receiving cash or throwing it back into getting more of that stock).

Thank you all in advance!
