D Correct answer
Explanation

Heinrich Hertz is the correct answer for who discovered/experimentally proved electrical waves (electromagnetic waves). In 1887, Hertz conducted experiments that proved Maxwell's theoretical predictions about electromagnetic waves. While Maxwell provided the mathematical framework and Faraday discovered electromagnetic induction, it was Hertz who actually demonstrated the existence of these waves through his famous spark-gap experiment, creating and detecting radio waves for the first time.
