The microwave heats food by agitating the bond between the hydrogen and oxygen molecules in water. The more water in food, the more steam is created from this heating process. Eggs contain a lot of water, so when the steam is created, and it is trapped inside the shell, the pressure inside the egg increases and increases until it exceeds the capacity of the shell to contain it, and the egg explodes.
This same principle applies with other foods: any food that contains a good deal of moisture and has a skin that does not permit the steam to escape will likely do something similar. This is why you are supposed to prick the skin of a potato with a fork before you cook it in a microwave.

Do hot dogs explode if you don't cut them?
No, hot dogs will not usually explode when cooked. Sometimes they will split open though. However in a microwave cooker hot dogs (like many other foods) can explode if their "skin" is not pierced to let out the steam generated during cooking. But even here they don't need to be cut, just poke two or three holes in them.

If you are microwaving one hot dog every 30 seconds, you could, at that rate, microwave 120 in one hour. The silly thing about this question is that if you needed to microwave 120 hot dogs you would put them all in the microwave together and set the time for 5 or 10 minutes. You also did not say how many microwave ovens you might have. If you had several, you could be microwaving tons of hot dogs.
