Explanation / Answer

Answer is as follows :

1) According to the given scenario the type of interrupt is asychronous.

Asychronous Interrupts are occur when the system is changed from one state to other state or performing operation.

So in this case when we set the oven timer, the state is change from off to on.

So we can say that for the given scenario the interrupt is Asychronous.

2) For this Scenario the the of interrupt is Syhronous.

These interrupts occurs in between the process execution and spend a lot of time waiting during execution.

So when the timer rings and we come food out the type of interrupt occur is sychronous becasue it is occur during execution.
