In Word 2010, I have an equation object that wraps at the end of a line. Is there a way to stop it from wrapping? (Since it's an equation object, I can't just use a no break space like would be normal for text.)

Word (2010) wraps long equations (in display format) only before some mathematical operators, like =, +, ∈
etc. (I know this from testing.)
To avoid the wrap, you can use a nonbreaking-space Ctrl+Shift+Space
directly before the operator.

While Dominik's answer will work just fine, it will add a space in your equation next to the mathematical operator, which you will likely not want.
The way around it is to use the No-Width No Break
special character. To do so:
=,+,-,etc
).You can also add a shortcut key for it to simplify this process

The equation wraps when it won't fit in the margins of the page. Assuming there is enough room on the page for the equation, you can adjust either the margins, or the left and right indent.
Alternatively, you can use the paragraph dialog to set the margins directly. This might be useful if you have a number of equations to fix this way and want them to all have the same settings. Dragging on the ruler in this case can be a bit fiddly.
You can do this by typing ‘‘200d’’ (or ‘‘200D’’), selecting it, and typing Alt+X. If the character to the left (i.e., to the left of the “2”) isn’t an “X” or a hex digit (“0”-“9” or “A”-“F”), you don’t need to select the “200D”. – Scott – 2019-06-25T19:16:31.847
