Solution

Heating the matter causes particles of matter to move faster. When heat is applied to a substance, it increases the kinetic energy of the particles, causing them to move more rapidly. Cooling the matter would actually slow down the particles, shaking the matter might cause some movement but not necessarily faster, and weak forces are a concept in physics that doesn't directly relate to the speed of particle movement.
