Final answer:

Physical strength is not a feature of being in the 'right state' when performing virtuous actions according to Aristotle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The feature that is NOT a feature of being in the 'right state' is Physical strength. According to Aristotle, being in the right state when performing virtuous actions involves various factors such as emotional stability, voluntary action, and knowledge. However, physical strength is not explicitly mentioned as a feature of being in the right state for virtuous actions.
