An assault rifle is a rifle that has more than 22'' inches of barrel and has selective firing rate, while the carbine rifle has a less 22'' inches barrel and semi automatic.
^^ Wrong.. An assault rifle is any select fire rifle that is chambered for an intermediate cartridge... Barrel length has nothing to do with it. The M16 has a 20" barrel length and is considered an assault rifle. The AK47 has a 16" barrel and is considered an assault rifle... Carbines that are select fire and chambered in an intermediate cartridge are still considered assault rifles.

What is the difference between m1 and m2 carbine barrel?
The M1 carbine is a semi-automatic rifle meaning that with one pull of the trigger the rifle will fire one bullet. The M2 carbine is a selective fire rifle meaning that there is a switch on the rifle which will select semi-automatic or fully-automatic fire. With fully automatic fire the weapon will continue firing as long as the trigger is pulled until the magazine is empty. This type of rifle is properly classified as an assault weapon. Both rifles share many common parts and barrels will interchange. The main mechanical difference is in the fire control parts. Possession of a certain number of unregistered M2 parts is considered by the BATF to be possession of an unlicensed machine gun and is a felony.
