I am new to LaTeX. Can someone please suggest me a good source for understanding how figure insertion in latex works and for learning how to insert figures according to one's choice in LaTeX.

This posting on this site assumes some existing basic knowledge, but it is a detailed presentation by the director of the LaTeX3 working group: How to influence the position of float environments like figure and table in LaTeX? – barbara beeton Dec 21 '19 at 19:32

The documentation for the memoir class (> texdoc memoir) includes 10.4 Where LaTeX puts floats which describes many aspects of the positioning of floats (figure, table, etc).
I have a feeling that somewhere on the SE site is a more comprehensive answer that does not necessitate buying a book, but The Latex Graphics Companion provides much information on possibly some of your future questions.

I think that The LaTeX Graphics Companion, by Michael Goosens, Frank Mittelbach, Sebastian Rahtz, Denis Roegel, and Herbert Voß, has all you might want and still more.
