Basic AWS Account monthly/yearly Cost after free one-year usage

The cost in your account will depend on the services you use. Some free tier level services are monthly (every month), some are only for the first year (you'll start to see those charges), while others are for a limited amount of time. The free tier details can be found here [1].

To learn what you are using, your bill should list all the services you are using and by each service which regions you are using them. Included in the bill details will be how much usage you had. With these details, you should be able to use the AWS Pricing Calculator [2] to understand what your non-free tier costs will be.

I highly recommend enabling Cost Explorer (free by default), if you haven't already along with setting an AWS Budget to get alerted when your bill exceeds a specified threshold. And you should consider enabling the Cost Anomaly Detector to find cost spikes and alert you to them.

It very much depends on which services you are going to use. There's no way we can tell "under normal basic usage" how much it can on average cost you provided the information you shared. What do you consider to be "normal basic usage"? You mentioned example: "learning or viewing new AWS update in its GUI/UI in different services without using any of AWS resources/services". If you don't plan to launch any resources, then you won't pay anything. Simply exploring GUI/UI won't cost you anything. There are many services that also don't cost anything - for example, exploring features of Organizations service, or learning about IAM permissions, or any features on the account settings / billing console page. Some cost management tools are free, too. There's no charges for simply having an open AWS Account, or even opening support cases to customer service team about account or billing related queries (doesn't apply to tech support though, as you need to have premium support plan for that). As long as you don't run any resources that could generate charges - you will not be billed for free services.

Note that depending on your learning goals, if you decide to test out resources that are billed, then of course you may be charged depending on the pricing for the particular service (you can then check the pricing page for particular service in advance before launching any resources on your account).
