You can check this with the 'file' command

Code:
# file /usr/bin/sh
/usr/bin/sh:    ELF 32-bit MSB executable SPARC Version 1, dynamically linked, stripped

Depending on the application whether it was compiled for 64 or 32 bit ...

If you have a 'sparcv9' directory, these applications and binaries will be 64 bit.
eg.

Code:
# file /usr/lib/sparcv9/lib300.so
/usr/lib/sparcv9/lib300.so:     ELF 64-bit MSB dynamic lib SPARCV9 Version 1, dynamically linked, not stripped, no debugging information available

Code:
# file /usr/jdk/latest/jre/bin/sparcv9/java
/usr/jdk/latest/jre/bin/sparcv9/java:   ELF 64-bit MSB executable SPARCV9 Version 1, dynamically linked, stripped
# file /usr/jdk/latest/jre/bin/java
/usr/jdk/latest/jre/bin/java:   ELF 32-bit MSB executable SPARC Version 1, dynamically linked, stripped
