How Does Changing Zero Adjust Resistance Affect an Ohmmeter's Accuracy?

[Mustafa111]

hello there i kinda need help with this, image attached in the thread
this is the ohmmmeter circuit and i have two questions :
-what is the effect of R2 when it become lower than Rm?
-what is the effect of R2 when it become higher than Rm?

Rm=internal resistance of ohm-meter
R2=zero adjust resistance

edit:i study computer engineering techniques and this is the instrument and measurements
so hopefully this is the right place to post

In your figure the bottom end of R2 is connected to the node where E and Rm connect, but the "wire" looks more sketchy than the other wires of the drawing. Is that connection intentional?

You need to make an attempt at a solution before we can offer any detailed help. Here's a hint though: You've identified R2 as a zero adjust resistance. What's the standard procedure for zero-adjusting an ohmmeter? Think about comparing the magnitudes of the currents passing through the meter Rm and R2.
