The object having the greatest mass has the greatest inertia. Thus mass is the measure of inertia.

Inertia depends on density and mass. Directly proportional to both of them.

Inertia is a property of matter that offers the resistance to any change in its state of motion including changes to its speed and direction or the state of rest.

Steel has highest mass and highest density which means it has highest inertia.

Due to inertia, objects resist any change in motion. 

Newton's first law of motion is referred to as the law of inertia

Inertia is defined as the property by virtue of it, body tends to continue its state of rest or of uniform motion.

Momentum is mass* velocity.

While running a long distance, jumper tries to gain more velocity that increases his momentum. When he jumps, due this momentum, his body covers longer distance.
