What these cards do
An extra combat card adds a combat phase to your turn, so your creatures can attack again before the turn ends. Most also untap creatures: Aggravated Assault and Aurelia, the Warleader untap all of yours, and Relentless Assault and World at War untap the ones that attacked. Aggravated Assault, Relentless Assault, Seize the Day and World at War add a main phase after the extra combat. Aggressive and Voltron decks play them to repeat one big attack.
They differ in how often and on what condition. Aggravated Assault can do it every turn you have the mana, Moraug, Fury of Akoum needs a land to enter during your main phase, and Full Throttle adds two combat phases at once. Genji Glove and Bloodthirster untap only one creature, and Combat Celebrant has to be exerted, so it won't untap during your next untap step.
Rules note: only untapped creatures can be declared as attackers, so a card that adds a combat phase without untapping your attackers needs creatures with vigilance, or ones that didn't attack, to use it.
On this list, the most-played red cards that give extra combats: Aggravated Assault; Aurelia, the Warleader; Moraug, Fury of Akoum; Combat Celebrant; and Karlach, Fury of Avernus.

Scry's answer
Results on . The six cards on this list that Scry ranked highest that day for "cards that give extra combat phases".
Combat Celebrant{2}{R}: If this creature hasn't been exerted this turn, you may exert it as it attacks.
World at War{3}{R}{R}: After the second main phase this turn, there's an additional combat phase followed by an additional main phase.
Anzrag, the Quake-Mole{2}{R}{G}: Whenever Anzrag becomes blocked, untap each creature you control.
Akki Battle Squad{5}{R}: Whenever one or more modified creatures you control attack, untap all modified creatures you control.
Balthier and Fran{1}{R}{G}: Vehicles you control get +1/+1 and have reach and vigilance.
Lightning Runner{3}{R}{R}: Whenever this creature attacks, you get {E}{E} (two energy counters), then you may pay eight {E}.
The card adds a combat phase directly after the phase it names, and when several are added after the same phase, the most recently created one happens first (rule 500.8). Each combat phase has the usual steps: beginning of combat, declare attackers, declare blockers, combat damage and end of combat (rule 506.1).
Can the same creatures attack in the extra combat?
Only if they are untapped. Attacking creatures must be untapped when they are declared (rule 508.1a), and attacking taps a creature unless it has vigilance (rule 702.20b). That is why most of these cards, such as Aggravated Assault and Aurelia, the Warleader, untap your creatures too.
Can a creature that entered this turn attack in the extra combat?
Only with haste. A creature can attack only if you have controlled it continuously since your most recent turn began (rule 302.6), and an extra combat phase doesn't change that.
Why do some cards add a main phase too?
Relentless Assault and Seize the Day add an additional combat phase followed by an additional main phase, so you can cast creatures and sorceries after the second attack. Aurelia, the Warleader adds only a combat phase, right after the current one, and the turn then goes on to the main phase that was already coming (rule 500.8).
