To subtract \( 4.66 \times 10^{-5} \) and \( 7.34 \times 10^{-7} \), we first need to express them with a common exponent.

The first number is \( 4.66 \times 10^{-5} \) and the second number can be written in the same exponent form:

1. Convert \( 7.34 \times 10^{-7} \) to the \( 10^{-5} \) form:
\[
7.34 \times 10^{-7} = 0.0734 \times 10^{-5}
\]

Now we can perform the subtraction:
\[
4.66 \times 10^{-5} - 0.0734 \times 10^{-5} = (4.66 - 0.0734) \times 10^{-5} = 4.5866 \times 10^{-5}
\]

Thus, the final result is:
\[
\boxed{4.5866 \times 10^{-5}}
\]

To find out how much the U.S. national debt increased from 1971 to 2021, we need to perform the following calculation:

1. **Identify the values:**
- National debt in 2021: \( 2.9617 \times 10^{13} \)
- National debt in 1971: \( 3.98 \times 10^{11} \)

2. **Convert both values to a common power of ten:**
- \( 3.98 \times 10^{11} \) can be expressed with a power of ten of \( 10^{13} \) by adjusting its coefficient:
\[
3.98 \times 10^{11} = 0.0398 \times 10^{13}
\]

3. **Perform the subtraction:**
\[
2.9617 \times 10^{13} - 0.0398 \times 10^{13} = (2.9617 - 0.0398) \times 10^{13}
\]
\[
= 2.9219 \times 10^{13}
\]

The increase in the national debt over the 50-year period is:
\[
\boxed{2.9219 \times 10^{13}}
\]

To find the difference between the sizes of a hydrogen atom (\(1.2 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{m}\)) and an oxygen atom (\(0.000000000152 \, \text{m}\)), we first convert the size of the oxygen atom into scientific notation.

1. **Convert the size of the oxygen atom:**
\[
0.000000000152 \, \text{m} = 1.52 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{m}
\]

2. **Now, find the difference between the sizes of the hydrogen and oxygen atoms:**
- Hydrogen atom size: \(1.2 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{m}\)
- Oxygen atom size: \(1.52 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{m}\)

3. **Perform the subtraction:**
\[
1.2 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{m} - 1.52 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{m} = (1.2 - 1.52) \times 10^{-10}
\]
\[
= -0.32 \times 10^{-10}
\]

4. **Convert the result into proper scientific notation:**
\[
-0.32 \times 10^{-10} = -3.2 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{m}
\]

Thus, the difference between the sizes of the hydrogen and oxygen atoms is:
\[
\boxed{-3.2 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{m}}
\]

(Note: If the question intends for the absolute difference or simply the difference irrespective of sign, just take \(3.2 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{m}\).)

To determine which blood component has a bigger diameter and by how much, let's compare the diameters of the platelet and red blood cell.

1. **Diameters of the components:**
- Diameter of a platelet: \( 2.33 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} \)
- Diameter of a red blood cell: \( 0.0000075 \, \text{m} \)

2. **Convert the diameter of the red blood cell to scientific notation:**
\[
0.0000075 \, \text{m} = 7.5 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m}
\]

3. **Compare the two diameters:**
- Platelet: \( 2.33 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} \)
- Red blood cell: \( 7.5 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} \)

Since \( 7.5 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} \) (red blood cell) is greater than \( 2.33 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} \) (platelet), the red blood cell has a bigger diameter.

4. **Calculate the difference in diameters:**
\[
7.5 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} - 2.33 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} = (7.5 - 2.33) \times 10^{-6}
\]
\[
= 5.17 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m}
\]

Therefore, a red blood cell has a bigger diameter than a platelet by approximately \( 5.17 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} \).

So the correct response is:
\[
\boxed{\text{A red blood cell has a bigger diameter than a platelet by } 5.17 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m.}}

To find out how many more people live in China than in India, we need to perform the subtraction of their populations.

1. **Convert the populations into scientific notation:**
- China's population: \( 1.45 \times 10^{9} \)
- India’s population: \( 1,400,000,000 \) can be expressed as \( 1.4 \times 10^{9} \).

2. **Now perform the subtraction:**
\[
1.45 \times 10^{9} - 1.4 \times 10^{9} = (1.45 - 1.4) \times 10^{9}
\]
\[
= 0.05 \times 10^{9} = 5.0 \times 10^{7}
\]

Thus, the difference in population, indicating that China has approximately \( 5 \times 10^{7} \) more people than India. Therefore, the correct response is:

\[
\boxed{5 \times 10^{7}}
\]
