How will the pressure at the bottom of the glass change if water, kerosene, oil and mercury are alternately poured into it so that the height of the liquid column is 5 cm each time?

It all depends on the substances themselves and their properties that these substances possess.

So, if you pour water into a glass, then the pressure on the bottom of the glass will increase.

And if kerosene is then poured into this glass of water, the pressure will decrease.

If after that you still pour oil there, then the pressure will decrease again.

And if then mercury is poured into this glass with this mixture of liquids, then, due to its properties, the pressure will grow very strongly.

Thus, the pressure really depends on the substances and on the size of these substances.
