ANSWER
Let E be the emf of each cell and r be the internal resistance of each cell.
In series, net emf =NE and net internal resistance =Nr
Thus, current: i
S
=
Nr+R
NE
In parallel, net emf =E and net internal resistance =
N
r
Thus, current: i
P
=
r/N+R
E
Here, i
S
=i
P
or,
Nr+R
NE
=
r/N+R
E
or, Nr+R=r+NR
or, R(1−N)=r(1−N)
or, r=R
