Dis यानी अलग। सुबह का कोहरा सोचिए — धूप निकलते ही वह बिखरकर धीरे-धीरे ग़ायब हो जाता है। Dissipate = बिखेरकर ग़ायब कर देना — कोहरा, ग़ुस्सा या पैसा भी।

DIS means 'apart'. Picture morning fog: as the sun rises, it scatters apart and slowly vanishes. To dissipate is to make something disappear by scattering it — fog, anger or even money.
