I know mozarella is main but what other TYPES/KINDS of cheese we can use and how does it taste/ look/feel . What is difference in making pizza with different cheese

There are several cheeses you can use for pizza othe than the
most common cheeses mozzarella, provolone, Parmesan, and Romano. However, other types—such as asiago, fontina, caciocavallo, bel paese, taleggio, gorgonzola, and ricotta—sometimes find their way onto “gourmet pizzas".
Non-Italian type cheeses—such as cheddar, brick, Monterey Jack, muenster, gouda, colby, and Swiss or gruyere are also used on pizza. They’re often blended with mozzarella or provolone.
Most commonly these days a blend is used.

In fast food type pizza operations: mozzarella unless otherwise specified. However: any good soft to medium cheese will work well (avoid hard cheeses as they won't melt well and will crispify)

Lots of different ones.
For the most authentic pizza, mozzarella, smoked or regular, provolone, asiago and parmesean.

Mostly mozzarella, but it's very common for others to be blended in with it. Generally parmesaen & romano.

Yes, many varieties of cheese can be used. However, please note that within each variety is a spectrum of quality (mostly flavor), fat/moisture content, and ability to "oil off."
Part-skim mozzarella may be a good starting choice and you can experiment from there....
