What does "Reputation is capped at 200 per day" mean? Does that mean the highest reputation one can get in a day is 200?

Correct.

Then if one has got 200 reputations in a day, if she gets further upvotes, she won't be awarded further reputations?
If that's the case, people should upvote her answers or questions the other day rather than today if she has got 200 reputations today so that she can further earn reputations for the same answers or questions.

@CaptainBohemian No, not necessarily
@CaptainBohemian rep cap means you can get 200 reputation from upvotes
So, for example, the 21st upvote on your answer wouldn't increase your rep, but would increase the answer score
This is to prevent one popular answer artificially inflate reputation
Reputation from everything else doesn't count in reputation cap @Captain, like someone accepting your answer, or awarding you a bounty
