A tarball is a file that has been compressed
, i.e. install them.
Well there isn't an explicit man page for tarballs, and RPMS should be
RPM.
Try man tar, man gzip, man rpm
If that all fails ( if you don't have man pages install at all on you
system) here is a website.

Generally:
tar - tar -xf filename.tar [extracts]
tar.gz - tar -zxf
explicitly for
Tarballs and RPMS is RPM.
For tarballs try:
man tar
man gzip
For RPMS try:
man rpm
If the the man pages are not installed at all, http://linux.ctyme.com/
