Best Answer

I'd consider a police officer's job to be both mental and physical. Physically you might have to have good speed, endurance, etc. when you're chasing a fleeing suspect or taking down someone uncooperative, and it can be mentally taxing what with late hours, dead-end cases, some of the more gruesome things police officers are assigned to oversee etc.

What do police power and authority consist of?

The power of a police officer lies vested in his physical strength and ability. It is based on this power that he gets enrolled as a police officer. A police officer without power can in no means subdue a criminal, it is vital. Likewise, the authority of a police officer is vested in him through a governmental agency that empowers or clothes him with certain duties that can take authority of to arrest and subdue criminals. Both are very vital in performing successfully as a police officer.I hope this explanation helps.
