Because of the chemicals that are used to keep bugs off, are still on the outsides. Plus store handling residue, makes washing food before you eat it is good safety.
ADDING: Don't forget bacterica, either from the soil or the dirty hands of the workers who picked the vegetables. There have been cases of food poisoning from bacteria or viruses on the outside of the food.
Not knowing specifically what vegetable you are referring to, I can only assume that someone told you not to wash something after you cut it, to avoid washing away nutrients. ( For the life of me, I cannot figure which that would be. )
But if you washed the vegetable before you cut into it, there is no need to wash it again AFTER you cut it. ( unless you are washing away seeds from the inside of a bell pepper or something similar, in which case, you are not going to hurt a thing by giving it a rinse. )
Fruits should be washed BEFORE cutting to get the dirt, fertilizer and insecticide residue off them.
They should NOT be washed after cutting them up or you will wash away all of the natural fruit juices and loose a lot of flavor.

They are washed because, often times farmers use chemicals to enhance their crops, and the people that handle the crops often times dont have many bathrooms around them, if you know what i mean.

Fruits and vegetables seem to be more frequently linked with episodes of food borne illness. It is imperative that they be well washed prior to use, particularly when they are not going to be cooked. As an example, melons need to be washed prior to cutting because bacteria on the outer rind will be pulled into the fruit as you slice. Salad items are another prime example and crudite vegetables are, too.

Yes the vegetables have to be washed before eating and before cooking to remove any harmful bacteria that may cause food poisoning. The vegetables should also be stored correctly so they are still fresh when eaten. Potatoes should not be eaten if they are yellowing through the white part.
Fruit and vegetables should always be washed under a running cold water tap before eating or cooking.
