The most common way is to burn a fuel such as coal or gasoline, this produces thermal energy, which can be used in a heat engine.

Another way is to burn the fuel in a rocket engine which produces movement through the thrust of the rapidly moving combustion gases out of the rocket exhaust. The common aircraft jet engine operates in a similar way in producing thrust through its exhaust gases.
