Just get out your trusty calculator and multiply 120 times 18.
The voltage itself will determine the direction of current (assuming there isn't another source pushing current through the source backwards); the amount of current will be determined by the thevenin equivalent resistance of the circuit connected to that source (the resistance "seen" by the source, which can be lumped into a single circuit element).
The first thing you need to know is the internal resistance of the current source, the voltage source will have the same internal resistance. Then compute the open circuit voltage of the current source, this will be the voltage of the voltage source. You are now done.
It isn't. If you're using superposition, you open circuit current sources and short voltage sources; this is because the current source declares the current that will be flowing through that branch. Both current and voltage sources have a finite internal resistance.
Ohm's Law Voltage = Current x Resistance V = I x R I = 9/5000
Voltage source: is any source that voltage and amperage come from. Resistor: is any part of a circuit that consumes that energy!

When resistors are connected in parallel to the same voltage source, the overall resistance in the circuit decreases. This is because the current has multiple paths to flow through, reducing the total resistance that the current encounters.
Electricity flows through a circuit when electrons move from a power source, like a battery, through a closed loop of wires and components. Factors that influence the movement of electricity include the resistance of the materials in the circuit, the voltage of the power source, and the arrangement of the components in the circuit.

Internal resistance. The ideal current source has no internal resistance in parallel with it (if it was set to supply no current it would act as an open circuit), and all the current it supplied would have to flow through its load (even if the load was an open circuit, in which case the voltage across the current source would be infinite). A real current source has the practical limitation that it must have an internal resistance in parallel with it, therefor some of the current it supplied is bypassed through that internal resistance and never reaches the load (if the load was an open circuit, then all the current supplied is bypassed and the resulting voltage drop across the internal resistance limits the voltage across the current source).
Voltage will be constant. Resistance is dependent on the components in the circuit. Source: Electronics Technician for the US Govt

Electrons flow from the negative terminal of the power source, through the wires of the circuit, into the light bulb. Within the light bulb, the electrons pass through the filament, creating heat and light as a result of resistance. Finally, the electrons exit the light bulb and return to the positive terminal of the power source to complete the circuit.
Volts = Current x Resistance. The voltage is where the potential resides for the amount of current flowing through a resistance. Think about the voltage as a potential source of electrons that then flow through a circuit depending on the Load, or resistance in this example.
Circuit has three components which electricity passes through. First is the power source, the supplier of electricity in a circuit. Second is the conductor that includes the wiring, switches, and any component that control the flow of electricity. Lastly is the load, or the devices that consumed the electricity. In conclusion the electricity flows from source to the conductor then to the loads.
