There are two levels of police in the United States: Federal and State. The Federal Level includes organizations like the Federal Bureau of Investigations, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Drug Enforcement Administration etc. These organizations get their authority from Article 1 section 8 of the U.S. Constitution which ensures Congress' power to regulate taxes and interstate commerce. The FBI for example pursues criminals who have or are likely to cross state and country boundaries. The DEA enforces laws on substances that have a tax ban on them.
The State level has three Sub-levels of police: State Trooper, County Sheriff and Local/City Police. State Troopers, also known as State Police and Highway Patrol, have Jurisdiction (policing authority) across the entire state but mainly patrol areas and projects that are maintained and operated by other State Level agencies, such as the Highways and State Government Buildings. County Sheriffs maintain and operate the county Jails and Patrol the unincorporated areas (areas not within city limits) within a county and provide policing services to Cities who contract the Sheriff's department as local police. Certain Departments, such as San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department in California provide search and rescue services. City/Local police serve cities and patrol within City limits. Every State Policing organization follows the state's Penal Code. County Sheriffs also enforce county mandates. Local Police follow both county mandates and city ordinances. Every state is self-governing over their own land so each is different in regards to their Penal Codes.

What is the relationship between government and policing and why is the relationship necessary?
There are so many ways to look at this question. I will answer this using drugs as an example, where government=federal agencies and policing=state police. Drugs are made illegal by the government. The government relies on policing to control the people who are in the first stages of either being a consumer or distributor. When policing isn't done properly or completely, mistakes are made. Mistakes cause failures. Failures result in the "bad guys" being set free with more knowledge than they started off with. People do learn from their mistakes. In this case, learning means evading contact with police by beating them at their own game. Making it harder for the government to do their job efficiently. The government has many responsibilities and cannot waste time to fail because the policing wasn't done properly. Which causes them to turn their heads in disgust. It's a vicious cycle that I can go on and on with but to make a long story short. Policing is the first step in control. When policing fails control is lost. When control is lost things run rampant. When things run rampant the governments job to control a country is harder to do. When control is lost the government has failed. A failed government results in a failed country. I used drugs as an example but imagine the outcome and speed of which things will happen if everything illegal is allowed to run rampant. Please correct me if my thoughts are wrong and please disregard my poor composition skills. I never paid attention in school.
