i want to make this also when the arrow hits an entity

can anyone teach me how

What are you trying to do, exactly?

[mint tusk]

make it so when you shoot an arrow at an entity it will blow up like using tnt

[mint tusk]

this makes it so when i shoot the ground it blows up

[dense igloo]

It'd probably be better to make this as an enchantment because checking for hitting an entity and creating an explosion is far easier

If you want to apply this to all arrows, you can use a function to apply the enchantment to all arrow entities

[mint tusk]

how can i make custom enchant?

question
are you learning how to make datapacks just to make this or do you want to make more datapacks in the future?
just want this -> ask someone to make it for you, shouldn't be too complicated
want to make more -> learn the foundations of datapacks first, datapack hub has a wiki here

could i use minecraft:post_attack so after entity is attacked it summons the tnt

[mint tusk]

i want to learn to make datapakcs in the future

[dense igloo]

that should work

[supple bison]

Dont just run a function and summon tnt, theres an explode effect in the enchantment specificly for that

And one more thing: add a predicate (in that enchantment, as a requirement) that checks if damage is not direct to activate the effect

Else, you could just attack entities with your bow like a sword and they will still explode
