How does the speed of an object increase its heat? For example how fast do I need to throw a water bottle for it to boil in the air?

So as stated above, how fast would I need to throw a water bottle (let’s say 20oz.) for it to start boiling, and why does it/ will it even boil?

Speed doesn’t increase the heat of the object. Other factors like acceleration, friction on whatever that object is traveling through, deceleration, etc. would increase the heat however and given a sufficient amount of any of that it could reach very high temperatures. Think of an object entering earth’s atmosphere.
