if it's executable and in your path you can type.
whereis mozilla
it will return the path
if you want to do a find on anything related to your query type...
find / -name "name"
or wildcards are ok
find . -name "nam*"
 
The / will look from root down
The . will look from your working directory down.
 
btw, I'm glad to see your really getting into this.
