Detailed Solution

For a potentiometer, primary circuit emf E1 should be greater than the secondary circuit emf E or else the null point will exceed the length of the potentiometer wire. 

Either the positive terminals of both E1 and E2 or the negative terminals of both E1 and E2 must be joined to one end of potentiometer wire.
