What does the explosion of the lusitania have to do with the us entering the war?
The Lusitania was a British cruise liner containing hundreds of Americans. It was sunk by the Germans because Germany ordered attacks without warning on all Allied ships, any kind of ship. However, this wasn't the only reason why the US joined WWI. Germany had been pushing the US's buttons even before the sinking of the Lusitania. Germany sunk American ships as well. They constantly talked down to the Americans. Then the Germans sent a telegram to Mexico persuading Mexico to declare war on the US. Germany would aid Mexico and if Mexico won, they'd acquire Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas; basically, this would be Mexico's revenge for their loss in the Mexican-American War. Mexico did not accept, however. The US was much too powerful for the Mexicans to actually win, Germany could not aid Mexico in any way as it was devastated by the war, and Mexico did not want to risk its relations with the ABC countries, who would soon declare war on Germany. Although the Americans wished to remain neutral, they had to enter the war because Germany was humiliating them. They could not just sit around and have Germany waste away their ships and bribe their neighbors to go to war with them, their dignity was at stake. So in a way, it was sort of like every other country's reason for joining WWI.
