Answer

Temperature in physics is the average kinetic energy (impact energy) of the particles. So you can increase the temperature by making the particles move faster by adding energy in some way. This can be done through a chemical reaction (combustion), the delivery of work on the gas (compression), the absorption of energy from electromagnetic or acoustic waves…
