    Circular motion with no frictional force

    I need a formula for an angle with which there is no frictional force during circular motion. No data. No hint. My teacher gave us such task on the latest test. She said that it is easy we just need to think. Nobody solved it. I don't know now if we are such fools or she is a poor teacher that...
