Cannot reduce the visibility of the inherited method from object

I have defined the following two classes:

public abstract class Subject {

    private ArrayList<ClockObserver> clockObserverList = new ArrayList<ClockObserver>();


    public void attach(ClockObserver clockObserver) {
        // begin-user-code
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        clockObserverList.add(clockObserver);
        // end-user-code
    }
    public void dettach(ClockObserver clockObserver) {
        // begin-user-code
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        clockObserverList.remove(clockObserver);
        // end-user-code
    }

    protected void notify() {
        // begin-user-code
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        for(int i= 0; i < clockObserverList.size(); i++)
        {
            clockObserverList.get(i).update();
        }
        // end-user-code
    }
}

and

public class SystemClock extends Subject {
    private int hour;
    private int minute;
    private int second;
    public void setTime(int hour, int minute, int second) {
        this.hour = hour; 
        this.minute= minute; 
        this.second = second;
        notify();
    }
    public ClockTime getTime() {
         ClockTime clockTime = new ClockTime();
         clockTime.hour = this.hour;
         clockTime.minute = this.minute;
         clockTime.second = this.second;
        return clockTime;
    }
    public void displayTime() {

        System.out.println("Time is :" + this.hour + ":" + this.minute + ":" + this.second);
    }
}

I got the following error for notify function:

Multiple markers at this line
    - Cannot override the final method from Object
    - overrides java.lang.Object.notify
    - Cannot reduce the visibility of the inherited method from 

Even when I change its visibility from protected to public, I still have the following error:

Multiple markers at this line
    - Cannot override the final method from Object

Could you please help me what is the problem?
