EXPLOSIVES AND AIR BAGS a) Explosion reactions occur so quickly and are hard to control. Also explosion reactions usually release large amounts of heat and hot gases. Other reactions can be controlled by factors like temperature and concentration‚ but explosion reactions are hard to control. b) A certain amount of explosives is put in the end of the tube and then the cannonball is put on top. Then a match or lighter is used to ignite the explosives as the fire reacts with the explosives it blasts
