Although the DNA packaging with histones proteins is mean to form nucleosomes (groups of 8 histones proteins), the higher structures why the genetic material is packaged with those molecules is to form chromosomes, as you said.
With the given information we can calculate instatenous speed and average speed
To calculate instantaneous speed, we need to divide part of the total distance traveled by time. However, we don't want to use the distance of the entire trip, because that will give us average speed.
Average speed = Distance / time
Velocity = displacement/time
Displacement. = v × t
