Simple... As an explosion consists of three things, just like a fire, you would need all three: Ignitor, as in the energy to start the explosion, or often referred to as temperature needed to start the combustion Fuel, the explosive itself, Oxygen , no oxygen, no explosive or fire... As the explosives and oxygen are present, the temperature isn't . If you were to heat up the explosives during transport high enough, they would explode.
Explosives would hardly be able to alter the position of earth. The only explosion that came close to altering the earth's position was from an asteroid that created 100 million mega tons of explosives.
It is still possible to use dynamite. However, you would need a BATFE explosive license due to laws. This would require you show a legitimate need for explosives.
There is not an explosive inside of a case. It is a powder that burns rapidly, but does not have the violent tendencies of normal explosives. if you were to pour the powder onto a table and set it on fire, for example, you would be very disappointed with the amount of flash.
Any powdered organic material, when mixed with large volumes of air, CAN explode. It is very rapid combustion. In 2008, anexplosion was triggered by powdered sugar that killed 14 people and injured 36. However, as an explosives engineer, nutmeg would not be my first choice for an explosive.
In 1875 Alfred Nobel made C4 explosives for the first time. He did not know then the impact the explosive would have on the world and ended up putting funds he gained into a prize that individuals can win for peace keeping efforts.
This would create a so-called 'dirty' bomb or, to use its official term, a radiological explosive device.
Yes, nitrogen is commonly used in explosives as part of the chemical composition. It can be found in various forms such as ammonium nitrate, nitroglycerin, and nitrocellulose, which are widely used in explosives manufacturing. Nitrogen plays a crucial role in increasing the stability, efficiency, and power of the explosive materials.
Plastic explosives are made by combining an explosive compound with a plastic binder and plasticizer to make it more stable and thus safer to handle. Nearly all explosives are toxic to some extent because of their reactive nature. For example, RDX, a chemical used in plastic explosives such as C-4, can cause headaches, disorientation, vomiting, violent seizures, kidney damage, and coma when ingested. Eating as little as 1 cubic centimeter (about the size of a sugar cube) of a plastic explosive can cause death.

If you do not know the answer to this question, then you have not been properly trained to detonate explosives, nor should you have been able to obtain an explosive. If you do somehow have a explosive that was not home-made and are using it for the filming of a movie or something similar, you must ask your local bomb squad if they would oversee the proceedings at a safe location provided they comply (and do not arrest you). This would be the only way to do it safely.
Naturally, it would depend on where you start.
