Find means just to come across or locate after a search. It usually means to find an object, but a less common meaning is to become aware of some new knowledge. "Find out" intimates that some kind of investigation was done, and the result was some new knowledge. "find out" will not refer to objects, it always refers to knowledge.

Find out means discover some information. You can find out something about someone, some place, etc. We use find out + [information]. You usually find out something by researching or from someone else.
