Those are spade terminals. If you can’t figure it out from there you’re probably too dumb to do it without zapping yourself.

You need a line cord. Keep in mind it won't have any problems with ripping nails out or cutting your fingertips off.

That fan is not epic, not even magnesium housing.
115 VAC fans were more common on power supplies, but rare nowadays with people wanting to control their speed and whatnot. Also rare because in the before times everything was designed to be passively cooled and no fans needed.
