Inclusive quasielastic {ital {rvec p}}+{sup 2}H analyzing-power and spin-rotation depolarization ({ital D}{sub {ital ij}}) data are reported for the nucleon-nucleon center-of-momentum angular ranges 46.9{degree}--118.0{degree} and 58.3{degree}--110.0{degree} at 647 and 800 MeV, respectively. Exclusive quasielastic {ital {rvec p}p} and {ital {rvec p}n} analyzing-power data and exclusive {ital {rvec p}p} {ital D}{sub {ital ij}} data are also presented. A simple isospin weighting model successfully describes the inclusive data and is used to estimate the free {ital {rvec p}n} {ital D}{sub {ital ij}} values. The new data are compared with those of previous experiments and with predictions of phase-shift analyses. The deduced {ital {rvec p}n} {ital D}{sub {ital ij}} values extend the angular range of previous 800 MeV data and provide entirely new information at 647 MeV.
